What was once our personal vision for our own electric transportation became the vision of Electric Vehicle Concepts. In the 1970's there were little to no full sized freeway capable electric vehicles offered in the world. Today in 2025 we are still designing and building electric vehicle concepts and electric kit cars for private individuals and other companies from around the world.
In 1973 our first fiberglass body design was commission by the king of Thailand (minister of finance) for the country. Some of his staff saw some of our electric conversions while in the United States. He wanted to produce some EVs in his country. Very progressive for 1972.
I had the freedom to create my own designs. This was not a copy of the real Ferrari 1973 BB512 (Boxter Berlinetta). This was my own creation using the features I loved about the Berlinetta Ferrari. We have used the molds for numerous other builds.
The Rixter roadster. This concept retro roadster was named after the client Rick R--- that commissioned the build in 1982. The concept was to blend the old vintage 1932 Ford low boy roadster with modern aerodynamic design concepts.
Very few people would have seen a sixty year old 1932 Ford coupe. So this made it a new design concept to most people. Being electric powered was a thing of the future. We might call it a retro mod now days. We have used the molds for a number of other builds. Using a different donor chassis, changing of fenders, top and noses it was unique for each client.
The Sigma GTE and E-Varri (electric Ferrari) motorcycle electric concept designs were commissioned by a Brazilian biodiesel manufacture. Their vision was to bring an exotic electric car to the world market in 1990.​
The Sigma's GTE roadster was built ten years before any other cars like the Tesla Roadster were introduced. The American company, AC Propulsion in California the early 2000's was the designer of the electric drive system using lithium batteries using the British made Lotus Elise.
The Sigma GTE was designed for international sales and the high speeds of the autobahn in Europe. This was the start of the lithium battery age. Electric vehicles could now be lighter and still have good range in colder weather.
The Sigma GTE was designed as an all wheel drive system. One drive motor on the front axle and one motor on the rear axle. This gave the car good traction on ice covered roads and twice the power of any electric cars seen at that time. Twenty years later we see two motor AWD as rather common on expensive EV's.
We had been racing our electric converted cars against gas powered cars in the 1970's. This Sigma GTE was the most powerful road course car we had ever designed with more torque than any gas production car of the time
The Brazilian company continuing to want to play with new electric concepts and decided to build an electric motorcycle. The original digital concept drawings were created by an Israeli design engineer. He had no affiliation with Ferrari. He was contacted by Ferrari for putting his drawings on the internet and referring them to be a Ferrari concept. He contacted me telling me that he got in a lot of trouble making the drawings and now I had created the bike.
​The Lightning electric motorcycle is what they called it. An electric start up company from Florida brought me a custom pro street Harley rolling chassis and some conceptual drawings. I build the plug for the molds on the chassis. Made body parts from the molds. Created the 120 volt electric drive systems using the A123 spiral Lithium ion cells in 1995.
​The Facade was our only four door concept. The original vehicle was built using the 2000 Dodge Intrepid donor. The cab forward design was created by the association of Lamborghini designers when Lamborghini was owned by the Chrysler corporation. This was now the hybrid array. The next donor vehicle was the Honda Civic four door hybrid.
​A start up company from Atlanta Georgia asked for a electric vehicle concept. They called it the Black Mamba after the deadly snake. Some design changes were made from the original drawing. We chose the Mitsubishi Eclipse for the donor vehicle. Giving the option of hard top or convertible.
The project was not 100 percent complete as the company members fell out of funding. The car ran but the doors were not finished as intended in the drawing. Seemed common as everyone is excited in the beginning.​
A recreation Lamborghini Reventon commissioned by a client. Only 11 of the original gas supercars were built at over a million each. We created a mold from the pictures on the internet. So this is not a direct copy. The donor car was a another cab forward design, 2006 Honda Civic. Actually only the green house was used with the doors. The bottom of the car was cut off under the door line and a new chassis build with the electric drive using the Civic sub frame, transmission and adjustable suspension.
​The Reverse trike (motorcycle). Manufacturing the three wheeled vehicle in the United States is considered a motorcycle and does not come under the safety standards and crash testing four wheeled vehicles do. We used a 2015 Fiat 500 E.
This was my concept design of a 38 Ford delivery van. The intent here was to use a mass produced front wheel drive vehicle so once the gas tank was removed we could lower the floor and add a wheel chair ramp up the back.
This was done with a 2010 PT Cruiser. All done in steel but the fiberglass fenders that were modified from 1932 Ford molds. I built this for my wife that was suffering with Parkinson's.
Built for a long time client using the Mazda MX5. Converted a number of Miata's to electric in the past. Used a number of molds to create this Bugatti concept.

There have been a number of other electric vehicle concepts over the years that are not part of this page. Most can be found in other parts of this website.
Since 2015 we have seen the worlds best mass produced Lithium Ion cells that now cost less than our lead acid battery technology. This has really opened up a new world for electric propulsion of all kinds of vehicles.
