This EV Ford Will Stun You

Once you see this car you WILL want it. The original hotrod is lightweight, high HP, and manual everything. If you are looking for a dose of nostalgia with a powerful and modern kick this hot rod from Current LA is your fix for sure. This EV conversion of a 1932 Ford "Deuce" captures the spirit of performance while retaining the look and feel of an original. Have you seen the Webb blocks before? They stuff an EV drivetrain inside what looks like a polished engine. Manual brakes, wood chassis, power nothing except for the pull of an electric motor and supporting electronics. Current LA was awesome to give a tour of this car and talk about all that went into the build. They take it out regularly so keep an eye out for it in greater LA at your next car event! 00:00 1932 Ford 00:46 The Original Hot Rod 03:02 Inside the Webb Crate Motor 04:12 True Old School Hot Rod Converted to EV 05:17 Power to Weight Ratio, and Range 06:45 Frame Off Restoration 07:42 Wood Frame Chassis? 09:04 Stock Suspension and Upgrades 09:22 Most Challenging Part of the Conversion 10:15 Original Numbered Body 11:02 Hardware versus Software Challenges
