Forget everything in this photo. I dont have any of it anymore other than that big grill behind the car. I am going to rebuild it this winter and swap it back from nutural gas to propaine. I dont have a place to hook into the house gas and the land lord will not let me tap into the gas.

pictures of my progress so far on Papa Smurf...
So far, scraped all the 'tar' off the floors
cut off/drilled out all the seat tabs on the floor and a bunch of other places.
pulled what feels like 10000 miles of unused wires out

so far, saved about 20 lbs of weight. Got lots more to go. We're down to all the necessary wires. We''re going to run new wires, new connectors, etc. and clean it up a lot, then paint the interior.

How's everyone else coming on their projects?

Off topic a bit but you did ask....
My winter project has been building a custom sportbike.
Its a Yamaha Vision V Twin I built and raced up and down the west coast.Its been gathering dust in my office for years now so I am converting it to a street bike.

Its 1984 650 Vision Motor in a FZR 400 chassis.
Right now I am installing a GSXR 600 front end and as well as building a custom tail section and pipes.

This is how it look after I built it in the late 80's
