Forget Tesla Ultimate Sportscar is Electric Porsche 356 via Kiwibloke October 20th, 2009 at 16:39

image Jack Rickard has created what arguably is a more beautiful electric sports car than the press darling, the Tesla. This is a Beck 356 Speedster (replica Porsche 356) mated to a Netgain Warp 9 DC series electric motor. On Jack’s website (http://www.evtv.me) is an incredibly detailed discussion on electric car conversion including the first project,  the Beck Speedster and a second more comprehensive project, a 2009 Mini Clubman Sport. You can actually purchase the Speedster on ebay currently. You can see Jack’s Youtube Channel here.
