Weight of 1965 B-Body frame?

Need to know the gross weight of a 1965 Olds Dynamic 88 convertible frame for shipping purposes. The frame is completely stripped down.
Thanks for your feedback in advance!

Just a guess, 300#s.
Are 88 frames boxed?

If you had a bathroom scale that reads to higher weights you could just lay a 4x4 on top of it that is longer than the frame is wide and set it up on it like a teeter totter. Remove the weight of the 4x4 afterward.
I know my buddy and I moved my A Body frame easily and with my bad bones I know it couldn't have been much over 250#s if that.
