Default Coupe Body Weight?

Does anybody know what the weight is of 1930 Coupe, body only? With or without doors installed.



Thanks,
Dale

The body only with no fenders upholstery etc is not that heavy
Two people can move it from sawhorse to sawhorse

Fords shipping weight for a coupe body with tank dash floors boards doors (probably with glass) ....................591 pounds, remove those removable parts weighing them as you remove them. I had help moving my Tudor body from frame to a dolly dad and two neighbors whom looked like football players and the neighbors almost dropped their end.
