Looks like a very interesting project Jonny. Just out of interest, what are the rules for getting a car like this road legal? Is it just an MOT or will you have to through IVA or SVA type approval.

I quite like the matt silver look!!!

Looking good. Why are you changing to that controller? was there a problem with the existing one?

Are you only ever going to be slow charging it or will you be using any of the higher amperage fast/rapid charging points? I'm going to be aiming at utilising both, but not sure what charger will allow for this. Keep us posted on the battery boxes as I'll have to do the same but am about 3 months behind you at the moment.

Whats the total volts and total kWh of the battery pack? have you considered adding more for extended range?
And what are you building Moggy?!

I did post this in Porsche video of the day as Jay Leno has a 911 project, but the first item is a 1914 electric car that he's 'restomodding' with a modern motor and Leaf batteries: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTTQCFeco54
