This blog follows my trials and errors in restoring a 1968 Triumph Spitfire, starting with a limited knowledge of cars. Hopefully, I'll be a pro by the end of this, or at least somewhat competent. ;-)

An Electric Triumph Spitfire
I found this post on CNN and thought I'd share...
Dan Busby converted a 1964 Triumph Spitfire into an electric car using a 40-horsepower electric motor and 45 Lithium battery cells that take up the entire space under the hood and where the gas tank would be.
I have really enjoyed following your hard work. I've got a '68 too and am going ELECTRIC like Dan Busby... I reference him at my blog too. I have my frame stripped and am dealing with the suspension issues presently. Look forward to studying your solutions. Drop you email at my site for updates! Jimmy Young www.68sparkfire.blogspot.com
