I found 2930 lbs on the web but not positive if that is correct.

it's more like 2050   but there is a difference in tin top or soft top or soft top with a fiberglass top on it, some guys get there's down to 1700 with driver,mine is just over 3000 with driver, winch, bumpers,big tires,ect.

mine's the convertible stripped of just about everthing i could (not top, carpet, back seat, etc.). i just want to get a beginning weight and an end weight. so a close approximation would be around 1700?

Don't even ask how my 95 Kick weighs.
With everything Calmini had to offer for it,  by it's self, weighs in at 3500lbs :o
but it does have the best of the best offered on it. ;D

Well if yours is stock and has no spare tire, doors, carpet, or back seat, and is a non jx model with stock front seats and tires, I don't see why you could not be near 1700 lbs.

You could always drive to a scale for big trucks, shipping companies sometimes will have them outside, and they're free to use at night.

another option is go to a scrap yard scale,  with some scrap,  they usually weigh ya befor, and after so they know what to pay you...

2930 is the gvwr of a sammy,  thats how much it can weigth fully loaded legally...
