    Weight questions

    Ran the truck across the scales yesterday and was amazed that it weighted 2600 pounds! In looking at the MARC post on Model A weights, the heaviest was the taxi cab at 2500+. I had a full tank of gas, a case of wine and a 24# bag of dog food. I would assume that the louvered hood and cab panels would have helped to reduce the weight.

        Too many balancing beads in the tires.

          Maybe you need a lighter flywheel.

            Ten gallons of Bondo would weigh 106 lbs.

              I think the weights were empty, no water, fuel, oil. also I think they would not have included the bumpers and spare tire.
