I think they had a prototype sedan a few years ago. Have to look a little tomorrow. I'd sure love to see it happen. BTW Ernest, I really like what you're doing there. I sure hope it works. Keep us updated on your R&D, so maybe I can steal your ideas :) Todd Bartrim Here is what I think is the start of the solution. A Harley generator. The stator is bolted up to the rear of the PSRU. I still need to build an adapter to match the rotor to the flywheel/clutch-plate. http://ernest.isa-geek.org/Delta/Pictures/EnginePSRUInitialMounting.jpg http://ernest.isa-geek.org/Delta/Pictures/EngineGeneratorFitting.jpg
