Bob, I have all those files too, I just never looked at them. I'm still welding the control arms on mine. I forwarded the drawings for an estimate for one set...
The adaptor plate and coupling that I am looking for will be an e-motor to the vw tranny. I would really like the adaptor plate to have 2 sets of holes, so...
The guys I'm quoting this thru (Revolt Custom Electric) usually do electric. They have a Warp 9 modeled in CAD and the tranny side is already in CAD so they...

For the adaptor plate, my plan is as follows; Dig up the adaptor plate in the plan drawings. I know it is for the kubota-vw tranny, but it will provide the...
Does making one part count? I'll be getting the D902 from Surplus Center. Once again, I'm planning on low cost. The flywheel adapter is going to be out of...
I read that when Congress recently passed a bill adding additional funding to developing newer automotive technologies they also classified three wheeled...
They can change the definition to include enclosed 3 wheel vehicles that get more than 75mpg as automobiles just by passing the bill and having the president...
In the same article it was stated that Aptera was the one pushing for the reclassification, though that may have been a misquote by the author. I will see if I...
"Mathis 333 of 1946" Sweet!!! Even if the XR3 is classified as an automobile, I can still build it if I say its a historical reproduction of the 333. (at...
More random thoughts too late at night: I've been thinking about the throttle on the XR3. Every diesel (and most gas) tractors I've seen has a throttle that...
More replying to myself... I forgot to add that with the governor, when you change the throttle position, the governor can go to wide open throttle (wot) until...
Getting to basics, this would be trying to complicate a fairly simple thing. After all your after milage? and perhaps simplicity...both should happen when...
Just glancing thru one of your links it appears that Aptera may be trying to restrict the competition. Will it also affect homebuilt XR3? The loophole might be...
Meant to add this link to my previous post. http://www.3wheelers.com/enter.html No edit function here I guess. The above link has info of about 350 3-wheelers...
There are many ways to look at this. Yes the government can reclassify an automobile. And PRODUCTION vehicles with 3 or 4 wheels must meet the new safety...
Does anyone know or speculate why the motor is specifified as the 2 1/2" long extended shaft? At first inquiries the vendors are puzzled by this. The...

I feel I will have to modify the pulley and hub. Do you know of a source for the longer shaft? Bob This e-mail transmission may contain information that is...
This must be state dependent. In Wisconsin, it doesn't matter if you make it or a production company does. You have to meet safety and emission standards in...
Take a look at this site, and specifically the 22 8M 85 -6F pulley. 3 1/4" wide, and 22 tooth. Knock off the inner flange, machine it down to the correct...
