I'm currently shopping for a camper to go on wife's 2500 Ram crew cab truck. Newer cabover non-popup campers under 2000 lbs are very rare. A typical short bed unit is going to come in between 2000 and 2500 lbs, dry weight. And that's with newer generation composite light materials/building techniques. A nice Lance camper can easily top 3,000 lbs.
Added in edit: After a couple minutes pondering, my comments above are very likely Not applicable to vintage/classic campers. No microwave, queen size bed, bathroom/shower, water/gray/black tanks. So, if one just had the original camper and it remains true to the original design, I suspect it's going to come in quite a bit lighter than a basic hardside camper today.
