The first car I remember was a '51 Chevy and that was about 3100 pounds. 
The '57 Chevy was around 3500. The '62 Rambler classic was back down 
around 3000. (Damn you, George Romney!) 

My '62 Lincoln Continental was 5200. Now there was a car. You could run 
over slow moving Volkswagens andnot even notice. On the other end of the 
spectrum my '62 AH Sprite was 1500.
