- At the start of 2021 I created Chargeheads to ELECTRIFY petrolheads essentially get more car enthusiasts into electric cars. An Electric Petrolhead if you like....A CHARGEHEAD!!!!
To start I decided to do an EV conversion and went on an amazing journey visiting many of the big companies in this field.
I selected the not so well known TVR Tasmin, AKA the Wedge (#TVRWedgee) to electrify after careful consideration of other cars. As I already had a TVR Griffith which I enjoyed driving and with my passion for raw, powerful, tail happy cars with no driver aids TVR was the obvious choice when selecting a car to electrify.
The 2nd build I started was the #SpecialTrikee project a 1970's BSA Aerial 3 Tricycle Scooter that I am turning into a e-Trike I can use locally and ride around at shows. Mrs Chargehead calls it my special scooter.....that originally had a 50cc two stroke motor and has a "mis sold 250 watt motor" in it. This project wouldn't have got off the ground if it weren't for my mate Vinny, who also did my Integra DC2 turbo build in the naughties! www.youtube.co....
The Latest project is Rustee #RusteeTesla the Tesla build to make a Model 3 Long Range....well.....better! This build is on a budget and in keeping with the Chargeheads green credentials I am using used parts where possible to modify.
I hope to not only entertain with ChargeheadsUK Channel and the #TVRWedgee, #SpecialTrikee and #RusteeTesla builds, but also to inspire watchers to create their own greener transport.
With the help of leaders in their field like Ralph Hosier (Engineer, designer, builder of special vehicles, teacher, writer, TV presenter and trouble maker.
Ralph teaches Electric and Hybrid Vehicle Training (IMI Techsafe), builds some amazing one off projects and most of all is a top bloke!
He's the engineer behind #TVRWedgee the Electric TVR.
Also Dr Nick Mason from ECO Classics and other EV specialists who are leading the field in electric transport.
So let the fun begin......safely in a controlled environment using the right EV safety equipment! ;0)
Did I mention myself and Ralph have also done an EV Conversion safety video as well • EV Conversion Safety V...

So while I enjoyed the 30 minute batter, I was expecting to see the final results with a profile side view. But no money shot. Damn you.
Thanks for your interest. its on the next vid ;)
Well done Tim & Ralph - good vid.
cool video
Awesome Compilation 😉
Great video, not sure I want a "rusty" anymore but Ralph's the perfect side kick!
A slight exaggeration on Ralph's part, winding me up as usual.
Great video, not sure I want a "rusty" but Ralph's a great sidekick!
Everyone wants a Rustee Tesla 😆
Nice work sir, I love the banter. Lowwering cars we've been doing it for years. love how Ralf wants to know what the rate is as if we read the box and instructions he he he.
Everything manufacturers make is always a compromise 👍😁
Glad you liked it 👍👍
Good bloke, that Ralph!
Great video Tim!
Thanks Tom 👍⚡✊
Great video and loved your Ralph very funny cheeky chap 😂. My biggest take away is all those areas i will be spraying with an anti-corrosion finish on my new M3 lol… Get that Jetwasher on those arch liners for goodness sake poor Tesla 😱🙈👍
The Jet wash certainly had its work cut out. Maybe the Chinese versions are better. Just had some more goodies arrives ;0)
What you now got. Meant to say loved those spinner from America bloody pricey though 🤣
@@ianberry5263 i've decided as not in keeping with the environmental vibe and not essential to leave those.
Minor point, Would have been nice to have seen some angle shots at the end of the episode to show off the completed look a little more
Good shout I'll include that more in the next video 👍
I feel a bit ill after seeing that stomach.....
You can have a private viewing next time I see ya 🤫⚡😆
sadly the "carry on tesla" routine had me bored :-(
That's a shame. Thanks for watching anyway 👍
@@chargeheadsuk oh i do enjoy your channel … by the way Tim unless i missed it did you mention how your acquired the model 3 and was it a kind of bargain when you bought it.
@@e46teddy i will explain next episode 😉
