guess my weight

Ok, I've replaced my rear trailing arm bushings and am attempting to set the ride height. I want to use Will Ferch's spring plate angle calculator, so I need to know the weight of my car. Can someone tell me what the factory said my car should weigh? 72T targa, very stock.

Thanks

I think the weight for a -72 Targa was 1050kg...

1127 kg / 2485 lbs curb weight

thanks all, I went with the average. around 2300 lbs. turned out fine I think. I drove it around and it settled a bit. I'm hoping it will settle about another half inch.
