Spechuy's 02 Build Thread
What’s up everyone - couldn’t find an intro section but just inherited a ’69 02 from my in-laws and will likely be a frequent visitor on here over the next several years. Not sure what’s in store for the car yet but first step is just figuring out what I have in front of me..
Will post updates as I go but wanted to say hello and glad to join the community!
Update: Jan 2022 - The car is going electric so pulled the motor & stripped interior to prep for mild restoration & conversion
Update: Mar 2022 - New parts have arrived
Update: Apr 2022 - Started to build out wiring harnesses & got frames made for the battery boxes
Update: June 2022 - Wrapped up all high-voltage & EV-specific wiring so it's ready to drop in & run final connections. Got a coupler made to mate the motor to the original trans w/ a new clutch & flywheel setup
Update: July 22 - Meanwhile, car is being repainted
Update: Aug 22 - wheels & tires arrived!
Update: Sept 22 - Car is back from paint and started dropping in the electric motor, frames, and routing wires
