Vehicle1997 Saab 900SE
I purchased this car used in 2003. It was my daily driver for about 4 years, until it had too many ICE related problems I wanted to deal with. I almost sold it once for $800, but I'm glad I didn't. The car is in great shape inside and out, it should have many years of life left as an electric.
Motorunknown Series Wound DC
Something big and powerful, or two smaller motors, most likely a DC, Warp motor, at this time. I would like to either meet or beat the performance of the original ICE car.
DrivetrainFWD auto transmission, to be converted to single speed gearbox.
Batteries0.00 Volt,
I'm aiming for at least 288V when complete.

Conversion TimeSlowly but surely, during all my free time :)
Conversion CostNot much, yet...
This conversion is in progress. All ICE components have been removed. Undecided on many of the conversion components. Current plans are to use a single speed gearbox with a Warp11.
