[s-cars] What does an s-car weigh????

[Tom Mullane]

Jerry,

I'm sure I'm not the only one on the list that has noticed that the gross weight of my car seems to increase by more than 1 pound each year.  Some years as much as 5 pounds.  The source for this gain seems to be located directly aft of the steering wheel   :-P

In the world of general aviation, AOPA says that an aircraft will gain 
weight on the average of around 1 lb. per year, from the date that it 
was built.  This is due in most part to wiring changes that are not 
removed for various radio and electronic changes and due to accumulation 
of dust in the air frame.  I would guess that some of the changes that 
are being made to the older s-cars would add weight at a higher rate 
than this.
