Who builds their own electric car? What skills do you need to do it? How did they build it? Where did the parts come from?
These are the questions I'll aim to ask in this series of conversations with other DIY EVers around the world who have completed their own EV conversions.

In this episode of DIY EV Chat we're headed back across the pond to chat to Karim Omara all the way from California.

The Wankel rotary engine used by Mazda is a wonderful thing. It's compact and it's powerful. It makes a wicked howl when it's on song. Unfortunately, it doesn't always last that long. Which is how Steve Pilcher ended up with a nice-looking sports car and no engine sitting on his parent's driveway. …
Andy Powell has been tinkering with cars for a long time, but this is his first electric project. And he's done an incredible job. Using that experience - and his home CNC router - he's made a Nissan Leaf-powered BMW Z3 that's probably a bit more polished than my own!
One day we'll meet up for a d…
