I wanted an electric car. I studied for around a year before settling in the tried and true method of a DC series motor.myglaren wrote:That's quite a project ekaftan.
Best of luck with it.
What inspired you to go down that path?
I love Citroens, and I selected the GS because its cheap, parts are plentyful and has a good empy-weight to max gross weight space to put batteries in, and this one was avaliable for US$800 (very, very cheap car in Chile) and was complete and kind of rust free.
