Anyone know the weight of a standard vw pan/ chassis? Bare, no suspension or tranny. Thanks!
Jeff

Can't tell you in pounds, but I can tell you that 2 guys can readily carry one. Even a retired guy like me. So probably in the 150 pound neighborhood.

Thanks. Have heard 150-300 pounds. So I'm going to err on the safe side and say 200.
