    Between 3330 and 3405 loaded, according to Noland's book. Depends on transmission, add 55 pounds for hardtop.

      The Black Book gives it a weight of 2975 pounds.

        I noticed the 2 figures also and wondered why the difference?

          "As Shipped" weight is no passengers, two gallons of fuel. "Curb" is no passengers, full tank of fuel. "Loaded" is full fuel plus two 150# passengers. A '59 (with two gallons of gas) weighs about 2900# with a manual transmission, about 3000# with Powerglide.
