The EV1's underside is a beautiful thing.


Any updates on the trailer? I read the vast majority of this thread tonight and would love to see some finished photos!
Sven7,sorry for the late response.
I saw Gary in September after Bonneville.He had sold his home and moved into another house and was in the process of working on it.So it looks like the trailer will languish until he's out of the woods on the house.
He continues to accumulate a database on the Prius.We'll just have to wait 'n see.
