Some of our projects
Model E
This 1930 Model A Ford, owned by the same family since the 60s, underwent an electric conversion. Our bolt-in kit modernized the car, preserving the original chassis with minimal changes, ensuring its heritage remains intact.
Short Circuit
Guaranteed to bring a smile to anyone’s face, this cute little VW short bus is aptly named “Short Circuit”. Powered by a Hyper 9 motor with 6 Tesla battery modules, this bus has great performance to match the looks.
Porshhh
The Porsche 912 was an overlooked car for many years, overshadowed by the 911. An electric conversion improves the reliability, performance, and weight distribution, giving these cars a new lease on life.
Agent Orange
One of our personal favorites, this 1976 BMW 2002 was treated to dual Hyper 9 motors, electric power steering, power brakes, and air conditioning. Boasting 350 lb/ft of torque and 250HP, this was a nice performance upgrade as well.
