Getting ready for more sandblasting

I'm working on getting the rear areas ready for sandblasting. I'm also working on the safety/heat control junction box.

Another Productive Saturday

I've been working on this rear component board which I test fit into the car today. Everything fits so I'll continue putting this together in the basement at home. This "board" is a piece of PVC sheet with the charger, anderson connector and a j-box for the charger interlock contactor as well as the 120VDC feed to the front end of the car. That feed will power the heater core as well as the DC/DC converter.
I am also trying to wrap up the welding/metalwork on the front end by fixing the rotted out hood latch mounting area.
With Roy's help today we hooked up the installed warp-9 to a regular 12 volt battery as a bench test. It was amazing to see the wheels spin and the motor hum. After that I pulled the motor so I can sanblast the engine bay and paint it along with the front battery bay.

Sunday Car Day

I spent a whole day on the car on Sunday. Here are some pics.

Sandblasting and Welding

We have a sandblaster at Roy's Shop, it works great. I got most of the front end cleaned up and now I have to weld in one more patch. I also finished the front battery rack and welded that into the car.
Still trying to figure out the rear electrical enclosure location. I think I am goint to get a new box for the rear. The hinged lid doesn't want to fit.









Still not getting too much car time
