The nice part about a classic car is the lack of electronics. I know there’d be the standard set that comes with it being an EV, but really, all I’m looking for is a container for a battery, really. I like the idea of using something where all the structural design has been done for me - whether it’s FoMoCo or not doesn’t matter as much. If I end up swapping out the live axle for an independent suspension, it becomes just slightly more important then, but just barely :) thanks! -lev _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Read EVAngel's EV News at http://evdl.org/evln/ Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
