In 1978 I wrote to Arntz and told them I wanted an Arntz Car. I was 12.

Steven Arntz wrote me back and sent me 1978 product literature. In it a big block chevy equipped car lists a "curb weight" of 2,450 lbs. 200 less for the SBC It lists front suspension from an MGB.

Other Arntz information I have however (an ad slick / fold out poster) lists curb weight of the SBC at 2000 lbs and 2250 for the BBC. It may have been an obvious ploy to throw off the guys at CC or a simple mistake. (yea right)
