Well from the Picture below to this in just 2 days... I coated all the hold downs in this plasticote stuff I found at Harbor Freight. It is designed for making rubber handles on tools. hopefully it will hold up to the acid and stop the hold downs from corroding. I also tucked some wires away so they wouldn't be seen and put some extra wire into the wiring harness for future expansion...
One thing that I have never mentioned ... last year, at the end of the season I removed the tires and rims. I sand blasted the rims till the paint and clear cote were gone and then i primer and painted and re-clear coted them in what i think is a more modern style. Then I took them out and got some new rubber put on then ... I splurged a little and got the Goodyear Assurance tires... One of the lowest rolling resistance tires on the market... The tires set me back 520$ but the ride quality felt great for a low roiling resistance tire. I hope there is a range increase.

Well It has been a long winter here in Ohio. Lots of snow and I really didn't want to leave the house. I waited till the last min to do some upgrades. First of all. I decided I killed my first pack trying to drive it in too cold of weather... Shame on me. So pictured here is 20 brand new batteries waiting to be installed. I also have made a guard above the motor to stop water and acid from falling on it when I wash the batteries. I was having issues with not being able to wash them really well due to the fear of washing water into the motor when I cleaned them. Now it shouldn't be a problem. Just a few more Little things and reinstalling of the batteries and I will be driving again .
