ICE cars made into an EV

I've seen an EV conversion done to a fully restored 1970's chrome bumpers MGBGT.
Super sexy classic looks, & a modern EV drivetrain 🙂
 
Anyone who wants to turn their dream into a reality should probably have a word with these guys...



Their Jensen Interceptor is pretty nice looking

In a past life I was an auto electrician for a specialist repairers, and worked on a prototype Interceptor. This one had a semicircle of leather seating in the back, it looked superb, but was an electrical disaster area, which is why I had it to sort out!
 
Certainly no fun without a big workshop and a hoist
I built a 10m x 6m garage/workshop/man-cave in the back garden & later added a 2 post lift.
The lift very rarely gets used, but it's a very cool tool/toy 🙂
Due to the restricted roof height I have to use a wheeled crawler board that also turns into a wheeled stool.
But anything sporty (not an SUV) goes up by approximately 4'-5'.
Meaning there's plenty of access in a seated position.

Looks good, mine will need to be at least 5 mtrs high, hopefully 6 mtrs plus, so I can get the motorhome in there and be able to walk on the roof while having a harness/fall arrester connected to the roof beams .... I have no wish to find out if I'm a bouncer or not .....
The hoist will be a much missed item, I had 3 in my mechanical workshop business and they make life so much easier ......
