Jimmy's 1968 Truimmph Spitfire

Owner	Jimmy Young
Location	Ventura, California United States ^map
Web/Email	WebPage
Vehicle	1968 Triumph Spitfire Mk 3 The very first car I ever owned (34 years ago... and she was 10 yrs old then!)and I'd like to bring her back to life with ELECTRONS not dinosaurs!
Motor	Netgain Series Wound DC
Controller	unknown
Batteries	10, 12.00 Volt, Lead-Acid, Flooded Why? I'm attempting a next-to-zero environmental impact approach. Don't need the highest speed and distance. We want to build zero emission, cool Town Car!
System Voltage	120 Volts
Charger	unknown
Top Speed	70 MPH (112 KPH) We hope... Well, fast enough NOT to get rear-ended in the slow lane.
Acceleration	Well... hopefully not LOWER than she was before! :o(
Range	She just needs to make it from Ventura, CA to Santa Barbara, CA for high tea with Grandma (while we do a little opportunity charging) and make it home again... with one lucky passenger.
Seating Capacity	2 adults
Looking forward to beating Detroit with a cool, affordable e-car... donations, advice and encouragement appreciated. Follow us on our blog! WebPage
