674 lbs. Waiex, Jab3300, MGL Ultra Horizon with AHRS, Compass and Flowscan transducer, Ameritek ELT, GS Air tip strobe/position lights, Duckworks HID landing light, interior light and dual 12volt outlets, Sonex interior, Prince Prop, Xcom radio, Matco wheels, hydraulic brakes and stick grip master cylinder, wheel pants and gear leg fairings, carpet on floor, Bing Carb with dual electric heater and mechanical fuel pump, Odyssey PC680 battery.

The plane is polished. Weight be damned, I'm highly considering a vinyl covering for the bottom - polishing it totally sucks.

I was at 667lbs for an aerovee powered taildragger with a very minimal panel (MGL ultra, hardwired Icom A6, and a backup airspeed indicator) but it has a 3 color paint job.
