Default Step Side Reg Cab Light weight??

Just wondering how much a Short box step side regular cab weighs? Does anyone have one they can put on a scale??? Air Auto and windows are the only options I'd need.

After see what was required for a S10 v8 conversion I'm looking for other ideas..

No scale, but that's what the registration said. I have seen it posted on the GM website and numerous forums as well. 4200lbs is without driver.
I believe the regular cab step-side Ford weighs more that the Chevy version already. If you add the heavier tires and wheels, along with the suspension modifications, and exterior body parts, the Lightning should weigh more.
