This is Daox posting for xpedro01. I'm on his mailing list for email updates on the project and I asked Tom if I could share. He agreed, so enjoy!
============================
Hi, this is Tom Shrimplin (xpedro01). Since I have had requests for pictures (and progress) I decided to send updates to those requests. This first one merely deals with the Nissan parts that will need to be transferred. NEXT week I plan to show where they will go. The third episode should show my progress to date.
1. This is what I bid on-front end damage.
2. It looked like the power train was not damaged, so I took a chance.
3. A very good neighbor with a bobcat made it easy to work on. Note size of battery.
04. Nissan layout.
05. This part was under the rear seat.
06. This group of modules was under the front seat.
07. These fit under foot between front and rear seat.
08. The heavy case (200 pounds-18 gauge) two halves were glued and I could not separate them. A cut off disk was used to remove the top half.
09. The Leaf battery was air tight and slightly pressurized. I personally think a flood damaged car would have a good battery. External pins were gold plated.
