  • In this episode we introduce the DMC Delorean build series. Trent Wonsley, our master engineer, walks through the ev conversion process and the planned upgrades. A car this cool needs an awesome electric drivetrain, so we are going to give it the full Tesla treatment. Check out the build and follow along to see what we do next.

    To electrify a Delorean has to be the most epic conversion possible.

  • @rosshunter9053
    @rosshunter9053 3 роки тому +88

    So, the Delorean will finally get a drive train that will match it’s futuristic design and get to 88mph far quicker that it has ever done before.
    Keep the projects coming guys, many of us have insatiable appetites for your EV conversions. Cheers from Western Australia.

    There is a lot of modifications to be done to fit a Tesla motor package in there. Where did I see about the latest revolutionary electric motor that was part of a wheel? -Where the hub is actually the motor. I think that is going to be a breaking point when we can start to easily convert classic cars to fun vehicles. Meanwhile, I will enjoy this show. Spectacular entertainment indeed.

    "The 8800 Evolution 2 provides a high performance 4×6″ LED headlight, available with a SmartHeat® heated lens! This headlight is the industry’s first to meet proposed National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) guidelines for a 5-Star NCAP-compliant low beam headlight.*"
