This is how EV1E looked today. Note the door jams and the lip around the headlight housing. Rigo is going to do a little more work on the headlight housing and prep it for paint. The directional lights have changed as well…more later.

The guys have been busy over at Cars Etc. and I thought I would share the results! Look at the lines on this baby. The doors open and close with just two clicks and the doors are starting to look as if they came with the car. And look at those headlight housings…I’ll bet those lenses fit much better now. But stay tuned we have got even more surprises in store.
Thanks guys, way to go!!

Fidel’s Masterpiece in Progress
I must get some video footage on this so you can see how well these doors work. I never would’ve believed it possible. Here are the latest pics…

AC EV1E
I went to visit EV1E at Cars Etc. and found that Rigo has been at it again. This is a picture of the latest incarnation of the Tail section. Just a little more sculpting and this section of her will be a master piece.

Left Set
Today I went to Cars Etc to check up on EV1E’s progress and I discovered that Rigo was on vacation. Before he left though he was busy on EV1E. The doors are coming along just fine. They are a force to be reckoned with, and Fidel is just the guy to tame them. Booth doors latch now and open and close without obstruction.

Fidel Solves the “Door Problem”
Yesterday when I went over to Cars Etc., I was shown by Fidel how well the passenger side door works now. It opens and closes. and latches completely, just like a real door! Meanwhile Rigo has started the tail lights sculpture and as you can see they are coming along beautifully!

These are not glassed in yet. I wanted to get the feel of them first. So far I like them. These are 68 Corvette tail light design turned upside down…Hey, “Whatever Works”

Hi All! I felt the need to give an update on the slow progress of EV1E. This month we started to prep her for paint and lo, the water came pouring down for quite a few days here in the valley. So while I was waiting I ordered a fiberglass piece which I have cut and am mounting in the back of EV1E to change the tail lights to round LEDs. The results will be stunning. I also did a warranty exchange on my ammeter gauge. The exchange went without flaw. Now that the weather is improving I will be finishing up EV1E cosmetically. I will also seal her for running all seasons
