So do you think the sheet for the '65 @ 3015 lbs is correct?? Do you remember having it corner weighed?

The early mustangs weigh much less than the new mustangs; but as a consequence there is much more flex in the early mustangs compared to the new cars. The weight of 3,015 is right on; yes I had the the corner weights set at one time.

My 07 Mustang shed a lot of weight via carbon doors, gutted interior, lexan, lighter engine/radiatior cradle, but pounds were added with the supercharger, and eight point cage.
