Thanks for letting me join!
This is a small EV Mini Car Project we are just wrapping up.
We sort went a bit overboard with the whole build. It leverages a motor/controller kit from Thunderstruck Motors and a 48 Chevy Volt battery. Disc Brakes and a differential jack-shalf. We fabricated the frame from scratch and the body is from a mold that made the original '65-66 Mustang Jr's.
Here are a few pictures.
And a link to a public build photo album.

Top speed about 27 mph and no idea yet on run-time. I ran it about 3 hours last weekend and the battery still reported 95%!
Monday it will be in it's first parade.
It is generating a lot of fun and interest.
