Enoch: --- a third car that some psychiatric help may be in order ---
Maybe that is a good idea. My mates in Sweden have learned about me for some time. Maybe it is them who have been needed the help .......

Well Enoch, thank you for your support. And Janne E nice to see you here in the thread also.

The electric Seven is the third car I am building. I have two more car projects going at the same time. A special rig is now in place for welding the frame. If I start with a new Seven car or if I start with an CealmSeven Cobra that is at the moment not decided. All the materiel to a number four Seven i in the garage. The CealmSeven Cobra materiel is not at home this moment.

Some pictures from today. It is warm now, just about minus 4 C so there is no problem at all to work outside. By the way I can mention that I started the number 2 car with V8 engine. It started att the first try.

The special rig.




The smallest Sevencar I ever had. A jigsawpuzzle. Is it this one I shall start with as car number four?


A better picture of the rear part of my 6x4 CealmSeven as it looks just now.

AdrianH: That is correct that this car is "consuming electricity" and also that Seven cars is not so good in the aerodynamic arena.

One thing this car is good at is to make people look at the powertrain the electric powertrain. It is PR that is one of the main goals. PR building it for the company and PR to show it that it works. By the way as my mates in Sweden very well knows is that I am not running my cars on track. My normal speed is between 0 to 70 km/h. In that range the car will not use som much energi.

If the 6x4 car i too "hungry" of the batteries then I can change the powertrain and flip it to the "jigsaw-puzzle" on the photo. It is also because of that I start build number four CealmSeven.

You could say that you are fast builder but a slow driver

I used to work for a Swedish company, they were called Satt Control. I was working on a project once with a guy from our Swedish office. Anyway, we were expecting a visit from the managing director of our partner company - BT Rolatruc. I thought I would impress him so I asked this guy how to greet somebody in Swedish. I practiced until I had it perfect - the big day arrived, I shook the guys hand and said in perfect Swedish "Jevlar huite" ( not sure of the spelling). I was never asked to meet anybody important ever again
Sorry to the non swedish speakers.

Enoch: That was not nice done from the guy. I knew what it means even if you spelling is not so good. You can forget the words you normally dont need them at all. Ok, maybe maybe if you by accident hit yourself with a hammer or so ..... but just maybe.

It was quite funny, actually. As I said it I saw the guy that told me to say it trying to leave the room but he was laughing so much he could hardly walk. I found out what it meant later
