Mustang Tech

I bought a classic VW for my daughter - it needed a bit of work to get it ready for xmas.

RTFM
I didn't want to, but the wife insisted. And of course following the instructions was the WRONG thing to do, because the instructions told us to put the motors on the opposite way to what I wanted and it went backwards when it should have gone forwards. So the thing to take away from my experience is - do NOT read the instructions. Ever.
Although I guess I'm preaching to the converted here fellas.



High powered dual motors and rear wheels fitted. I hope these tyres aren't expensive because I'm going to teach her to do skids.



Screwing down the motor mounts with high tensile 500HP rated self tappers.
Damn my garage needs another clean (and some more storage).

Awesome little bug for your daughter Xmas pressy.

You work fast. Can you come over and do my daughters VW?

now that has to be the quickest end to end project I have read.

Have you taken it for a test drive yet?

"Still cleaner than a VW" sticker?

Which it technically is...

I want to see a video of your daughter doing skids in it

I'll eventually supe it up for sure.

I'm not sure those front springs will take the weight

She will be on two wheels for sure on your driveway.

Read The Ford Manual - did you pick up the wrong box?

Just remember it is double demerits ........

I would also highly recommend getting a second battery. We have a second one for my grandson's John Deer & it makes like easy .......

Yeah good idea... I'll have to pull it apart to see what model they are. I know they are 6V x 2. I might have to accidentally buy bigger voltage ones

That's pretty sweet! Are the wheels rubber or plastic?

So is she drifting yet?
