I forwarded information on my Instructable to the folks at the EVDL (Electric Vehicle Discussion List).

I was really cringing - hoping that they wouldn't be too hard on me! Some of those guys are really hard-core!

I only have gotten one response so far, but it was a nice one!

"Ben,

I like your instructables site on your Geo Metro build. It gave me some
ideas. Also, I liked that you followed up with links to further
information and more detail on the build. The car looks good. You were
able to keep costs very low. People inspired by your build could aim
for a similar budget, or could choose to spend more in certain areas to
make the build go easier according to their skills and resources. I
could see where a wide audience is hit here, low budget like me, middle
of the road, and high end folks who may say, hey, that's how that works,
I like that, I'll hire company X to build me a Geo, S-10, etc...

Good luck,

Alan "


Thanks for the kind words Alan!
