This blog documents the restoration, and conversion, of a 1965 Humber (Singer) Vogue to a fully electric vehicle. The Vogue will be powered by an 11kW(modified), 3 phase industrial AC motor, controlled by an industry standard Variable Speed Drive (VSD) or Inverter. To be able to produce the 400 volts phase to phase the VSD will need about 600 VDC of batteries. A big thanks to the contributors on the AEVA forum: http://forums.aeva.asn.au/forums/

Motor Coupler

The motor coupler sits between the motor's 38mm shaft and the front drive shaft flange. It was mild steel so had to be painted. I chose red. I figure you have to crawl under the car to see it so I'd make it easy to spot.
