Post by: akronterr on 2014-10-31 18:11
Hi Guys, My brother just bought a 57 Ranchero from Arizona and to title it here in Pa. They said they need the GVW of the car. Curb Weight. Which I found. My ? is did ford give a GVW on these in 57? Notery said it has to be on the Ranchero some where. I said it is NOT. Am I correct? Thanks for any info Terry

Max gross vehicle weight includes load capacity, I believe....should be in the 34-35oo lb. range.

That sounds about right. Curb weight about 3400-3500lbs., add half a ton or so and you get your 4600 lbs. GVW.
