Converting a Car to Battery Power (VIDEO)

Are you seriously concerned about the environment?  The energy needed to make a new car is equal to about 1000 gallons of gasoline—which must be burned before you start driving.  Have you considered the energy savings of converting a gasoline car to electric?  A car that would otherwise go to the junk yard might be kept on the road by taking out the blown engine and putting in an electric motor.  Instead of paying $20,000 plus for a hybrid car (which still needs gasoline), why not consider a dedicated electric car?  Ampmobiles, Inc., in Lake Wyatt, South Carolina has been training teams of mechanics and your mechanic could be next.  www.ampmobiles.com COST per converted car runs about $12,000.

We can no longer just sit back and hope that someone does something to make a difference. We are that someone. Sure, we are risking a lot, we have worked very hard to have what creature comforts we have now. But we can not take it with us, it will not make a difference that we had the latest new gadget on the market. We see the light in the grandchildren’s eyes when we tell them of the sights we’ve seen. The air that smells so good, yes, good air. Ah-ha, now we’re talking. The air. Look around you now, breathe deep if you can, and see the children playing in the park, if there is one. They will become your country’s leaders. They will be the ones to mold and shape us for the eyes of the rest of the world to see. They are why we build electric cars. (ampmobiles)
