This is very cool. I have an EV now, but my parents both had VW Rabbits when I was a kid.

Good news the Mayflower tyres are rock hard and have virtually no rolling resistance so perfect for a vintage EV! 😊

[@Good-Enuff-Garage]

my friend the eternal optimist, but do you think we have a chance at the world land[fill] speed record? 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@Ghia66]

If you were in Ireland the Garda would be a very speedy tyre recycle… in the meantime pump them up hard!

[@badrinair]

fantastic work. Really nice to see that an old car has been given a new lease of life

[@Good-Enuff-Garage]

This Man Gets It! 👍🏼

[@georgespratt6548]

[@Good-Enuff-Garage]

[@Good-Enuff-Garage]

we are getting there, if you only saw all the behind the scenes nonsense like what seemed like 9 hours today looking for that silly noise coming from the rear quarter panel, and we still have not found it

[@pata7355]

there are some analog style gps speedometers out now. if you want old school gagues to go for a sleeper look that would be a idea.

[@IfItAintBrokeStillFixIt]

well done , great journey so far, nice project, you have been a good inspiration to get me back into my project.

[@Good-Enuff-Garage]

Glad to hear it, I luv your channel!

[@mb-3faze]

Excellent! I converted an old MG (in 2008). Not so much choice for parts then - but since then I've upgraded to Leaf batteries. But the motor is 100V and that makes getting ex-EV/hybrid battery and charger parts a bit harder.

[@Good-Enuff-Garage]

pics or it didn't happen 😉

Check the 'about' section of this channel.

[@robwag1974]

[@Defianthuman]

if Electrify America had level 2 it would be pretty funny since it's a VW.

[@markusyngberg]

Nice work 🎉

[@tkmedia3866]

hey! I charge there from time to time while eating lunch in the car.

[@Good-Enuff-Garage]

Lets do Dos Coyotes some time

[@alibro7512]

Brilliant mate, no better feeling than taking from the rich. 🤣
I wonder if it's the car or the sandals the Tesla folk dislike. 🤔

[@Good-Enuff-Garage]

wait till winter when they see me in sandals and socks [ I'm allowed I'm European, lol ]
