How much does a 46-47 Hudson PU weigh?

Has anyone actually had their 46 or 47 PU weighed? And what was the weight. The book weight says 3180 pounds, that seams like it might be on the light side. What about the modified PU weights anyone? Lee O'Dell

    I had my  1946 truck on the scales last summer and the weight was 3498 with 1/2 tank of gas.

    Paul Thank you. Is your truck all original? That gives me a ball park weight to expect when mine is finished. I have a large old style thick diamond plate rear bumper & reinforced bumper brackets, that may increase weight another 100 lbs.. Lee O'Dell
