My coupe was 1083 last year full of fuel before lead.
Will be heavier this year with all the fiberglass repairs though  :P

Do you know of what kind of weight range is the approximate norm?

The 37 coupe WAS the lightest car manufactured. There are so many variables to weight its crazy.  The chassis were not hard to figure out, the 37/40 coupe was the lightest, the 37/34 two bar sedan was next, the 34 coupe next and the 37 4 bar last.  Fiberglass are all over the place in weight and thats a game changer.  Add all the possible omponents to the mix and you have anybodies guess car to car.

Look at the numbers that people have posted. That should give you a pretty good reference.
