I have been working on the car, an hour here and an hour there, as I have time.
I have most of the ICE junk out. The exhaust and gas tank are all out. I removed some of the heat shielding. I plan on removing it all. I also removed some of the soundproofing. (who needs that with an electric?). I am going with the idea that the lighter I can make it, the further my range will be. Things I will remove include
-spare tire and jack
-any sound insulation
-all ICE junk
-unnecessary wires from the wiring harness and fuses
here is an excellent link along those lines

So I am actually at the point where I am ready to remove the engine. I have talked with the guy I am going to buy my motor and batteries from, and he his getting my order together.
Here is a picture of the car when I first got it. I have been taking pictures and will post more.
