Electric Motor

I found an electric motor on ebay that should work for my truck. I was told that it is an AC-46 motor.

AC-46 with shaft keyway and C face drilling and rear cover

Aluminum Heat sink for cooling controller

Curtis 1238-6501 Controller with programming for motor

The total was $2800. This was from Allan Bullock out of Livermore, CA



This is a picture of the motor mated to a transmission from a Ford Ranger.


Here is the motor all mounted in the truck.

    Right on! I dig your truck and your project, very cool. I'm building a '53 Hudson Hornet electric, at the moment. The motor/trans adapter is one of the hard parts, so you've got a great start there, well done!
