Weighing my car with only one platform scale.... can it be done?

My thought is to use the scale with a ramp in front of it and an exact replica ramp for the opposite wheel on the axle. With me driving each wheel onto the scale RF,LF,RR,LR then adding them all up would i be able to get the complete vehicle weight? What obvious factors am I missing? I can't afford a full 4 wheel scale set.
 


Thanks I will definitely do that, but im also thinking of measuring non running vehicles for weight distribution and such.. But I did not think of that thanks again tech
 
There is a way you can calculate the weight of your car.. It involves placing paper around the wheels and the pressure in your tires....I think I remember seeing it on Bill Nye The Science Guy:th_laugh-lol3:
