The new electric motor has finally arrived. Soon (after we get the pool room conversion "pretty well" completed, I'll start putting some serious time in on the conversion. Watch for frequent pictures and progress reports.
This is a project to convert a gas powered 1986 Volkswagen into a 100% electrically powered vehicle. The conversion will entail removing all the gasoline associated equipment and replacing with an electric motor, sixteen 6-volt golf cart batteries and associated electronic controls. The batteries will be recharged using standard 115 or 230 volt household outlets. Initial performance is expected to be: 30-40 mile driving range between recharging and an available highway cruising speed of 65 MPH.
