Re: Where to start?

The last 3 issues of home power magazine has had articles by Mike Brown
about buying a conversion car.  Sheri Prange has also had articles in
those issues dealing with the same subject.  Correct me if I'm wrong
Mike and Sheri.  Check out http://www.homepower.com for these great
articles.  The magazine is available in PDF format so it can be viewed
in any operating system.  It is a wonderful magazine.  I subscribed to
it for the renewable energy info and Mike and Sheri's articles came as
a bonus.

PS.  I'll also put in a plug for Steve Clunn's video on converting a
pickup to electric. http://www.grassrootsev.com  Steve is the white one
still for sale?
