A body with small block, I *think* was about 3500 lbs.
Would hope they found and saved the broadcast sheet when the did the resto, and if so would be really cool to see you post that. lighter my 73 charger with a 440 was 3400' think the a body's were around 2800.

She's a beauty! I've always had a weakness for good looking Mopars. A friend of mine back in the late 70s and early 80s really liked those 340 Darts. Or maybe he hated them? He killed 4 of them! They kept getting away from him. Another friend had a 71 340 Demon that was one of the quickest street cars I ever saw. He ran low 13s with slicks and open headers. He did what most of us did, ended up getting married and selling it. 7mm

That is a beauty. That green vinyl bench brings back memories of a friend's '69 Dart. Even a 318 in those 3,000 lb cars moved pretty quick.
That crate engine is running the newer heads I see. Seeing as how you are running A/C I'm going to bet it isn't the 380 hp motor - cam is pretty wild in that. Do you know which rated engine is in there? And which carb? I have a love for the AFBs and AVSs of the period.
Man that car's gorgeous. I hope you drive it, but you'll spend so much timing cleaning it again!
