Getting derailed

[BDA]

I hope it’s at least not an electric sailboat!

  I pulled a lower back muscle and haven’t been doing much in my garage. The point is the bombshell look is still there.  After doing days of paperwork I’m off to the dmv to register 3 of my car antiques and get some plates to drive them once I clean them off. 😂

Very nicely done!! Very pretty!!! 

Now put the scooter back together and get back to the Lotus!!

So, a Smurf bomb went off in your garage?

  Good one Kendo,
The pink was terrible. 🤣.
  Then my other daughter sent me this car she thinks I would like.
 About 1 hour drive away .

“Hello. I am a gearhead and can’t help myself”

A quick look on BaT showed a nice looking running example for $15,500. That one is too much of a mystery for $15,000 IMHO. You shouldn't be tempted! You have a Lotus to finish. FOCUS!!

  BDA,
  I don’t have room at my house or theirs. 
 Hopefully today I’ll get back into the garage.

Good! Lack of space is a motivation killer for such a distraction that's as good as any!

  All most finished putting together my granddaughters electric scooter.  I transformed it from a putrid pink to a bright blue beauty. I may have gotten carried away a bit but I know I’ll be working on it in the future.
  It has a sequence to assemble or else your going to do the job again.

I like the blue!

[dakazman]

  Turbo, The blue is definitely an improvement 😁
  Now just adding the batteries and the handlebar covers and console gauges, bleed brakes .
 
   One setback is the seat lock retention spring clip, I’ll have to fabricate it out of some spring steel sheet. The normal lock clips were to large.

  I have a few more small tasks to accomplish, bleed brakes and trim but all in all she’s finished
Getting the batteries connected and the plug and play harness connectors were a little bit of a PIA.
Then my granddaughter came by and gave her stamp of approval. It’s my older granddaughter who’s going to get this on July 3 rd.
  It was a fun project that I wish I had more time to learn about the motor assembly housed in the rear rim. I’m sure I’ll be the mechanic of choice down the road . 😂
