EV Conversion: Delorean

We've started to make progress on the EV conversion on the Delorean.  This will be the first Delorean that has been converted in the US.  Electrogenic have developed this kit on a car in England and ours will be the second in the world.  We have completed three of their kits on: S1 XKE, D90 and S3 XKE.  This DMC is the fourth kit for us.  

This one is especially interesting as Colin Chapman and Lotus were hired to develop the original car.  The chassis shares the design with the Lotus Esprit.

The car came to us with the original powertrain removed.  Jorge took inventory of the parts and began the install.  The motor was fitted and most things lined up well. He has dry fitted the rear battery to determine wiring lengths so we can terminate them for final install.
