EL-ROCCO

Post by Fresco3000 »

Okay,

After a few words on another post, I've decided to have a bash at an electric scirocco (el-rocco).

As she stands, rattling with black smoke billowing, via a past owners Golf TDI conversion.

I'll attempt to add a hybrid or full electric motor depending on what I can afford and what's out there.

Looking forward to modifying internal displays etc...

First job on the list is getting shot of the TDi engine, anyone?

Looking forward to seeing this project. Thinking of going back to do a course on electrics as I would love to do this.
Good luck and keep us posted.

Hey Paul,

Great to see your work, I saw a project in the US a while back. I'll be following your progress!
