You could tally up the material and calculate the weight.

My guess would be around 1/2 of the total weight.

74 28 ' frame & floor gross weight
Counting axles and wheels it would be pushing it to be 40% imho.

My GUESS is about 1850 counting the floor.

There is not a lot of meat in those frames.


Brevi tempore!
