How much of the frame are you looking for? Axles, suspension, steering intact? Or just bare rails? Bare rails can easily be picked up by 2 people and carried around.

Mine has nothing but fuel and brake lines and it is pretty heavy. Two people can move it but not easily, defiantly not picking it up. I'd say it takes four maybe three big guys to pick one up completely and move it.

NO NO I had a full size 3/4 ton frame and I could almost pick the whole thing up at once. By myself. Almost but not quite. I would say probably 400 lbs all stripped down. 400 lbs at the very most.
