It’s a convertible. It was cheap. It has four seats, and a musty smell. And he’s past the point of no return. Join a totally non-mechanically-minded newbie on his quest to build an electric car that doesn’t look like it fell out of a cornflakes box.
were sold to the public. The story continues: Presently the Th!nk factory in Norway is under new ownership, and the company (Think Nordic) has plans to start selling the new model in 2007.

I was lookin into buying one of those electric superchargers on Ebay, there about 0 or I can get a "Pro" one for about 0 from some "real" electric supercharger company.

(im not trying to make a race car outta the thing.. just trying to make it get out of its own way) Rated wheel HP: 85

Hi, my name is Ken Davis. I grew up working on cars, and have always been comfortable under the hood. I also care about the environment, and was searching for some way I could do my part to help fight global warming. Saving some money on my gas bill wouldn't hurt either. A friend suggested I take a look at converting one of my cars to run on electricity, and gave me some tips about how to get started. I put together this blog to share my experience.
