"Quote" I personally have not had the car weighed,however I have a copy of the original invoice on the car and the Manufacture shows the Curb weight to be 3634.Again not sure how accuate that is,but I know it's lighter than a T/A.

The shipping curb weights were usually done with only 3-4 gallons of gas, but sounds about right for a low option '74. IIRC, a '74 TA shipping weight was 3760 for a no option car. So 130 lbs lighter would mean, all other things being equal, about .13 quicker to the other end of a quarter.
