A little about me I am just an everyday guy that wanted to convert a car to electric because I was tried of playing the gasoline price game. I found a 1974 super beetle Volkswagen, from now on it is the voltswagen, and I rescued it from the grave. I had to totally rebuild it from the ground up! Once this was finished I started looking for the parts to convert it to electric. Now, you can buy a kit complete with adapter plate, motor to transmission coupler, pot box, motor controller and all the other things you need BUT hang onto your wallet because most of the places selling these kits with all the components are getting a very high price. THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS and some even 8-10 thousand dollars. I don’t know about you but those prices are way over my budget and I would have to drive the car for 20 yrs to get my money back I was saving on gas. So I found if you want to do a little research your self and buy these things individually you will save about 50% over a kit. Also the kits don’t include the 2/0 wire you need and the batteries, 6-12 or more batteries depending on your motor voltage and battery voltage, 6,8 or 12 volt. That is why I decided to build the couplers and supply them at a reasonable price so everyone could afford them. If you are interested just click on the finished coupler picture and it will take you to the purchase page and explain what you need to do. So get out there and fight those gasoline prices and go electric!! Thanks! |
