project Enfield 8000 1970's Electric Car, Second Car Acquired
coalnotdole posted a topic in AutoShite
I think we can all agree that lockdown was a difficult time for many. With less actual work to do I had more time to take stock off just how many projects I have ongoing, realistically i don't have time to progress all of them as much as is needed - Red Rebel, Scimitar SS1, Capri, Boat, etc etc. Thinking about that was a bit depressing so instead I bought a small aluminium bodied electric car with a rotten steel space frame chassis and £1200 of missing batteries to add to the project queue! First three photos taken outside the previous owners house where its been sat since 2016 when he changed jobs and could no longer get to work on a single charge: And arrived back on the isle of wight for probably the first time since it was built here 45 years ago: Cheers, Dave -
Having recently had some tussles with a dead BMW ECU, I thought this was really interesting: https://www.ifixit.com/News/52123/the-coming-battle-over-hacking-your-own-car Especially how the guy managed to update to a newer version of Ford Sync enabling CarPlay. I am tempted to really learn this side of 'shiteing' as well as mechanics.
