Ahhh sh*t. Just found these fuckers for sale 25 miles away from my spot. Called the guy and going tomorrow to purchase them ( i hope! ) $1500 for the pair. Ill talk em down to $1000 I hope. Im good at that. Bought a lot of cars in my day. Its still alot of money but when Im done with em they will be worth 3-5 times that amount.....easy
Anyways.... THIS is a project. I would restore and convert them to electric drive. How dope would that be? sh*t.
So hey....and Im serious...if I get these motherf***ers is there anybody that lives in Los Angeles that wants to help me out with this sh*t? Ive got so many projects going I need a hand. Ill put up the cash thats no problem, what I need is a helper. Someone who knows something about restoration, is mechanically inclined and understands what it takes to convert to electric drive. You dont need to be an ace or anything...just smart, motivated, interested and available. And willing to help me work on these..... for free.
Ill break you off $$$omethin when (if) we eventually sell them but your take away will probably be experience and the fact that you can likely learn a lot from me.(not trying to have an over inflated ego, Ive just been in the game for a while, plus if I dont hype myself then theres less incentive for someone to help me...amyways....) Lets just say I know a thing or two about fixing sh*t. Ive been a tinkerer all my life and have a vast array of knowledge on different subjects. Kustom paint, electronics, welding, fabrication, engine building, upholstery, racing, firearms, custom firearms, locksmithing, machining, restoration, carpentry/woodworking, auto body, design, and business ownership are some of my more polished skills. Professionally, I am a master certified automotive technician. I worked for very high end manufacturers for many years before opening my own shop. I specialize in electrical work and diagnostics. I own a very successful auto repair shop and have all the tools we will need. On the side I am a kustom car builder with 6 high quality builds under my belt. Mostly lowriders. Couple of traditional kustoms too. My work has been in magazines and taken trophies at car shows.
I work full time at my shop so would be doing this sh*t on evenings and weekends. Im a night owl too, so I usually work really late into the night. If you are interested PM me. Tell me about yourself and maybe we could meet sometime and talk about it. I am even toying with the idea of opening an electric bike/scooter/etc shop. The time to do that would be now, while the scooter craze is still fresh but going full force ahead, Who knows where this could take us.
And please understand, I DO NOT BULLSHIT. Im dead serious about this sh*t so please be respectful and dont bullshit me or waste my time. Thats some sh*t I dont like.
Hope to hear from one of you guys. This sh*t will be a lot of fun I think.
Heres pics of the scooters that got me on this idea.
I will leave early to purchase them tomorrow unless someone else scoops em up. Hopefully that dont happen.
