1987 Ford Ranger Electric Vehicle

1987 Ford Ranger

This posting is for an "old school" 1987 Ford Ranger electric vehicle conversion. The conversion kit is based on the KTA products. A 30HP (peak) DC shunt motor from Advanced (model FB1-4001) operating at 120VDC via 20 x 6 Volt golf cart batteries provides the motive power. The speed controller is a Curtis model 1221C rated at a maximum 400 Amps. Included is an onboard 110VAC charger, a K & W model BC-20 (with the LB-20) that plugs into a standard household outlet. Also included is a Sevcon DC to DC converter to float charge the 12V battery system powering the traditional vehicle electronics. A vacuum pump supplies the original power disk brakes (front). An electric pump operates the power steering. Power to the wheels is via the original clutch and 5 speed manual transmission.This vehicle is a "daily driver", not a show vehicle - as can be seen by the pictures. If you keep your foot out of it - it can provide 40~50 mile range. Charging usually is done overnite. Top speed is ~65MPH. It's an older - heavier vehicle, which will require a bit of room to reach that top speed. Presently - the batteries need attention or replacement - the range is down to ~5 miles.Registration is current and the [California] carpool lane - EV exempt stickers are included.The winning bidder will be responsible for removing/transporting the vehicle within 10 days of purchase.Prospective buyers are encouraged to inspect the vehicle and/or request additional pictures or information.An extensive file including the original manuals & documentation for almost all the components is included.
