Post Body Shell
What is the weight of a 2CV body ......less doors/glass/boot and trim etc?

Nearest "gram" will be fine.

Cheers
Peter

not sure but would think not much more than some 50/60kg. I can lift on my own standing in the middle and lifting it on the roof crossbar.

Are you sure about that, folks?
I can lift a chassis (52 to 60kg) and move it around on my own, but it's much more difficult to do that with a bodyshell, even when standing inside it as they did on that 'World's Strongest Man' carry-on.
I'd reckon it's more, maybe closer to 80kg.

Of course, if you're built like this character, a 2CV bodyshell would be no problem... :roll:
