Just a heads up ... truck scales aren't accurate for weighing passenger cars. Its like measuring ounces on a cheap lbs scale. I heard that Alston Chassis even documented a 600 lb variance checking them in the Sacramento area.
Recycling center scales are closer (the ones that are calibrated for cars coming in and leaving). A chassis shop with 4 corner wheel scales is the way to do it.

I have no connections in Las Vegas with wheel scales. I would hit up the circle track guys or a shop who sets their cars up.

I always just weigh my cars at the track/drag strip. If you race during the "big" events the scales are open and free!!!

They usually charge like $8.50, you can get front axle vs. rear axle if you park on the pads correctly, accurate to with in 20#
