Hi Pete:    The gross weight for the 415-C model is 1260 pounds. I would 
expect the empty weight of the airplane you described to be around 840 to 
870, if it has not been painted, and 875 to 930 pounds if it has been 
painted. The spread may seem like a lot, but it depends on how much 
upholstery, insulation, paint, wiring, and radios have been added. You
must 
remember, that when the 415-C was initially built and certified in 1941,
it 
did not have an electrical system, nor any paint. The interior was very 
Spartan. Current, state of the art radios are quite a lot lighter than the

older versions, which I suspect the Coupe you are asking about has. 
Additional items such as wheel pants and speakers add additional weight.
The 
extended baggage compartment adds about 8 pounds, without any upholstery. 
Thoroughly confused?
