Look, I want an electric car as much as the next guy. My commute is inside of 25 miles, like 99% of us, so distance isn’t an issue. Neither is recharging, I live in a very progressive state with a row of electric-car charging stations at my favorite grocery store. I just can’t swallow the price tag of a new car. Here is one solution I found that may just be how I spend my next few weekends.
Ingredients:
1 Geo Metro
1 Electric forklift
1 Electric motor
a dash of spare parts
a smidge of random batteries
Bake for a few weekends of hard work, and voila! The result is a medium speed, medium range, cheap-as-heck electric commuter car. This one was built by 2 DIY’ers in Toronto to get them from point A to point B for little cash, no pollution, no noise.
It’s called: The Forkenswift!
