    Today we moved the classic EV that someday I’ll fix up, I hope… Maybe.

    But first we had to source new tires because the old ones were flat and blew as soon as I put a few pounds of air in them. And there was no way it was moving without round tires 😳

    Harbor freight trailer tires aren’t quite right, but the bolt pattern matched. 🤷🏻‍♂️

      @User47 now that looks to be a fun project! Can you get parts for them or is everything got to be customised?

        @vwdasher surprisingly available parts. Not everything but a lot of components shared with golf carts and cushman stuff. Most folks replace the electronics with modern golf cart stuff that was my plan too

          @User47 oh that's handy! Are you going to register it for road use? Can you there?

            @vwdasher street legal, yes! Not for highways as top speed is 35 and I’m told it’s quite a thrill at that speed.

            This one needs a lot of love so can’t register it at the moment. But amazingly I pay zero personal property tax on it here in MO due to some weird classic car exemption
