I am looking for the weight as listed on NSW rego papers preferably. I am hatching a plan but need to know the standard weight of the car first. ;)

i have a 72 fasty (obviously), and according to the wheels test i have a copy of, it weighs 1009kg give or take. Guessing the auto would add a bit more weight.

According to my 1972 owners manual, the kerb weight for the variant is 1035kg. There is no separate weight given for AT or MT.
