Jimmy,
Whoa, is that true?????????
I guessed Copo's Bel Air curb at 3950, based on the following:

64 Ford Gal Wagon, 4450 lb on the scale, all iron 390 a/t

All the books say the Chev was about 200 lb lighter than the Ford, including the wagon weights I show (I am not trusting the book weights except in a relative sense)

So 4450-200=4250 curb for the Bel Air 390a/t Wagon
Now the 390a/t weighs about 300 lb more than the 292powerglide combo, so 4250-300=3950 curb, "Guess" for the 292 Copo Bel Air w/o driver.

Do you have a scale weight for a 63, any model, but wagon if possible, if so what engine?

500 extra pounds would make it quite a bit slower - just curious if you can share a real scale weight since I guessed.
