F3 Curb weight

I've searched around the net and can't seem to find the curb weight of an F3 pickup. Anyone happen to know what it is within a few hundred lbs?

Thanks

Chuck P

The above is from the 1948 Ford Truck Handbook.

Thanks much, where can I pick up one of those handbooks? I'm in the process of buying a 1948 F3, that will eventually become a mild street rod/tow rig.
