Gav's EV Conversion 2 - Dismantling the Tredia
The Electric Car Conversion continues!
Following on from my first video a few days earlier, this is where we finally find a way to get the Mitsubishi "Deadia" into the garage.
Once in the garage the dismantling begins.
We start by removing all the old bits & pieces not needed for an Electric Car.
A few examples of now obsolete items I enjoyed removing were:
Gas tank
Exhaust system
Fuel lines
Petrol filler spout & lines
Used engine oil
Oil filter
Petrol Filter
Carburetor
Radiator & lots of brown water
And of course, The Planet Killer (the engine)!
I have appeased the knuckle Gods many times over the last few days. I have made many a sacrifice of skin and blood to them, as it is written in the knuckle bible.
You'll notice I got a big suprise when looking at the gearbox after removing the engine... It wasn't a good suprise either!
Enjoy the story as it unfolds everyone.
As always, I welcome your tips and comments.
UPDATE!
You can now watch the progress in detail at www.KiwiEV.com
ANOTHER UPDATE!!
I'm selling DVDs of the whole project for $15 USD at my website www.KiwiEV.com (That includes Airmail postage too!)
The quality's much better than on Youtube and it comes with an unreleased Bonus Video!
