Mine was last weighted in 1965 after they installed the metal wings, and I

see no reason to weight it again until an AP says I must.

I have started to remove the 1960's IFR panel it had.  I don't use any of 
that stuff.  It had an ADF (tube, but a great radio--loved it) removed,
COM 
120, AT-50, Nav 11, King 150B? (tube) removed and replaced with a King 97 
or 96, King KMA 24 audio panel. As soon as I get an AP to patch the 
fuselage, I will have the ADF and marker beacon antennas removed.  The
turn 
and bank has been removed. It still has a DG (old style AN), Vertical 
Speed, EGT and the normal VFR instruments.   The interior is simple cloth 
with cloth covered foam used for side panels and two sets of cloth pockets

on the side below the seats.  It has a standard carpet, but it doesn't 
cover the kick panels.  The baggage area is simply glued on cloth.

I don't see how people are putting an extra 100 pounds in a Coupe with
most 
radios weighting only 2 to 4 pounds.  What are they putting in 
them--hardboard side panels, bricks, tiled wet bars?
