Electric Ford Model A Rat Rod with Motorcycle Motor

Electric Ford Model A Rat Rod with Motorcycle Motor

Rich Benoit of Rich Rebuilds created the world's first electric Ford Model A rat rod powered by a Zero motorcycle motor. This unique build features a 3-speed transmission from a ‘60s Chevy to achieve necessary torque. The unconventional EV conversion has regen braking, reaches highway speeds, and can even burn rubber, making it a distinctive project in the rat rod community.
