Does this sound right? I have no AC, power windows, air pump, but the rest is pretty much stock in terms of equipment.
Thanks for the feedback,

Well, "the scales don't lie".
I *think* a mid '70s 911 was supposed to weigh in the neighborhood of 2450 lbs off the showroom floor, so you're somewhat below that for sure. Your car sounds similar to mine with respect to options, but I have had to remove alot more stuff to get to the low 2300 pound range.
I usually did my corner balancing with about a half a tank of gas, so that would make somewhat of a difference. 10 gallons of gas added to your 2319 number would get you closer to 2400.
