weights

["Thomas Moll" <moltek@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

To add to the confusion my 1974 US owners manual gives different weights 
for all three models! All weights are listed as curb weight: 

2000 Berlina 2590 lbs
2000 GTV     2305 lbs
2000 Spider  2320 lbs

Now i really wished i had weighed my Spider before starting to take it 
apart to lighten the car.

Ps The weight differnence between Spider doors wihtout the side impact 
beam is six pounds compared to doors with the beam (20 vs 26 
empty)
