A '69 Build... "Brought to you by Don Juan Productions" Full index added to page #1

No way.
It should be closer to 9k
Under 7k.... I’m still hoping for less than that.
I think the 1st gens were about 3700. Fab work maybe 800-1000 pounds?? Big block, big tires, big axles and doubler... maybe another 1000+???
Edit.. winch and cradle another 200?? I also found a better weight for a 1st gen

Man, I hope not... lol
You should be under 7k unloaded. Trail ready I would expect you to be over 7k.
I’m 6250 unloaded, no spare and a 1/8th tank of fuel. I would guess you have more steel in your rig but the drivetrain is pretty similar.

Those numbers are kinda what I was hoping for. I guess we’ll see.
Any idea how many feet of tube you’ve used?
All of it!
I honestly forgot through the years. I think I have more than 10 sticks though. Maybe more.
Skinny blocks and 3/4tons the mall crawler is just shy under 5k trail ready. Granted I don't carry a lot of extra parts.
Enjoying the progress, really happy to see this.

Is our estimate with you sitting in it or not. That will make a lot of difference. 
# 7500

I knew it was coming... just didn’t know who from. Lol
So what does one win if they guess right? Cookies?
But my guess is 7150. I'm good with chocolate chip too by the way.

Yeah, I don't know about sharing my cookies....but we'll make something happen.
Seems like everyone is rotating around that 7k...except Iceman with the 9k, but he didn't know I wasn't going to be in it, so there's that.
Im in for it being at least 7200 lbs. This thing is gonna be heavy.
5875 lbs
7650 loaded... me thinks you underestimate the moo farm.... 
6543.21 LBs

I going to guess about 8000lbs with driver.
There is a LOT of extra steel in that rig.
It is going to be about twice as heavy as my rig.
