As a going away present for Mr. Garrett, we have decided to convert his 1961 VW Bug. The car will have specific design parameters to insure the integrity of the 51 year old car. We are in the early stages now and are careful to make sure the whole process can be done without any cuts be made to the car. The car will be 144 volt Lithium system, using the old cells from the MR2, which are in a semi depleted state, but should be good for a few more years and a vehicle range of about 50 miles tops.
