| Factory lists the weight of the Starchief Vista at #4155 with Hydra-Matic. Knock off #115 for the 3 speed manual. Catalina is #50 less, Bonneville is #30 more. Only equivalent hardtop is the Bonneville Sport Coupe at #4085. Figure an additional #6 per gallon of gas, #2 per Quart of coolant, #4 for oil, plus accessories. They ain't light!......John | |

| Hell no they're not light. I guess 4400-4300 is reasonable. Sucks that it's so heavy _________________ Robert Lewis 1959 Pontiac Star Chief 4 Door Hard Top | |
