Shot out to those who payed close attention to some videos and already know it's an S10 EV, not an EV1, if it was an EV1, Jared would be in BIG troubles with GM and we all know Jared is not that dumb. 🤣

@TheQuestionableGarage 6 месяцев назад

There is one out there privately owned, I know levels of offers made, I don’t have those pockets….

@aserta 6 месяцев назад

Are they still salty today? Man... GM seriously screwed the pooch with that exercise. Not only did they shot themselves in the foot, but they basically put a hater-label on their own foreheads. The CEO and BoD were drinking some stupid water or something. Even Exxon (the crimes against humanity dudes) knew back in the day which way things were going to go and had EV feelers on the markets to buy electric assets.

@uncleray-ray7414 6 месяцев назад

Happy birthday, Jared. Hope ya get to feeling better. Please say you got an EV1. I love them. GM was supposed to destroy all of them, but some stubborn people liked them too much.

That hint at the end!!!! My engineering senior project was building a hybrid mini formula 1 racecar. In the same shop was an EV1 on a lift. We weren't allowed to bring it down...

@jamesdawson5509 6 месяцев назад

EV, historically significant, lead acid batteries. 99% chance it's an EV1... Also, I've seen enough Rich Rebuilds videos to know that a kitchen knife is the proper tool to disassemble a Tesla battery.

Same tech as the EV1 but not an EV1

S-10 EV, not EV-1

@2coolwheels139 6 месяцев назад

Happy Birthday Jerod. Mine was on the 10th! I know what you have. A lot of people don't know the same driveline used in the EV1 (which all but 3 were crushed), was also used in a limited number of S10 Pick-ups. I worked at a GM dealership in those days, and had a chance to see a few EV1s as well as S10 EVs at the GM training center in Burbank, CA. Although I looked, I could not find one for sale when I actually had money, LOL!

@discoj7112 6 месяцев назад

Reminds me of Jay Leno's steam cars. I think he converted them to natural gas burners instead of wood or coal or whatever. Functions almost identically but much more convenient and safe.

@SRBuilds 6 месяцев назад

teaser looks like an under hood picture of an EV S10 I found online. The EV1 doesn't seem to have that round reservoir to the left but the s10 does. That would be really cool!

@starkyslp16 6 месяцев назад

Happy birthday! Interested to see what you do with these, but please be safe. We kind of like you and want to see more! I don't understand why ordering insulared linesman gloves wasn't one of the first things to do months ago after getting the Tesla. No reason to wait until last minute and then not find any.

@TheGarner0 6 месяцев назад

It has been awhile but I definitely recognize that S10 ev engine bay! I remember my service advisor sell an “engine” oil change package on one of those🤦🏻‍♂️

@ForgeSpace 6 месяцев назад

Assuming the airbags went off, the pack is already split in two with the pyro fuse. The individual modules are 24v.

@cousinjohncarstuff4568 6 месяцев назад

It would be the Cavalier electric that JR Go had? Replace the lead acid with Lithium?

@ericg7044 6 месяцев назад

It's the GM EV S10 Pickup Truck, not the EV1. They made around 500 of them and 60 were sold outright rather than leased. All of the EV1's were leased and then the majority were crushed once given back after the leases were up.

@jasonmalo 6 месяцев назад

Wait, Don't you have an S10 EV truck? same as the EV1 but in a truck version?

@gonzoprius3589 6 месяцев назад

Watching you struggle with the metal cover on the battery i had an idea. Next time treat it like a sardine can. Use a long piece of square tubing as the “key” and wind it back.

@johncastillo838 6 месяцев назад

If you haven't junked the battery holder yet, go back and cut the internal brackets out so you can use them with your project. Much easier than making them from scratch.

@jaredshadley 6 месяцев назад

Putting a modern battery pack in an old EV that uses Lead Acid or early Nickel Metal will give a modest performance boost though you would not think it at first. With the Lithium pack you will negate most of the voltage sag that would have been observed with the older battery tech. (Easy way to test this at home is to put a modern 2-cell LiPo battery in an old RC car)

@alanrickett2537 6 месяцев назад

Should also get better volumetric and gravimetric density so more battery for the same space and weight would expect the space to be the limiting factor but depend on how tight the space was for the old pack

@Noslime 6 месяцев назад

Always look forward to new videos. Any chance we’re going to find out what you’re gonna do with the Porsche?

@todontblink 6 месяцев назад

I think the performance motor needs to go in the collector car so that it can become a second burnout car. I feel like an electric car with plenty of power would do an amazing burn out with having less issues with overheating and probably some pretty high wheel speed.

@jeremypedersen9195 6 месяцев назад

🎉😊 glad you didn't get hurt taking that battery cover off.

@jimscarlett 6 месяцев назад

Happy birthday Jared! My guess is one of those electric S10s GM made around the same time as the EV1. That would make a pretty cool project!

Is Motortrend going to give you and Freddie a show? I think you need to do your show "Wrench Everyday" with some network backing and sponsors. David Freiburger might be able to help get it started.

@distantcomets 6 месяцев назад

Happy 40th Birthday, @Jared! I'm not scrolling down before responsong so this is a legit guess with no peeks at other answers. Gotta be the GM EV-1 that was made famous in the documentary "Who Killed The Electric Car?" Hoping I'm right and if so, what a beautiful idea it is to bring one of those back to life with parts from its spiritual descendant! Not your regular content but I'd be geeked out to see it! I was under the impression they'd all been destroyed...

--when doing high voltage work, also only use one hand for most of the contact work. if you ground out, it goes through one hand, down a leg, ground. if you use both hands, it could ground across yoru chest from one had to another, over your heart. military high voltage electronics training. i was playing with 20kVDC when i was 19, before the year 2000! i wish i could send you some funds for one of the motors. i want to build a custom EV out of a mk2 jetta coupe, for "reasons" and one of those motors would be bonkers in that tiny platform. kinda like robert's dual motor escape

EV1, right? If so, that's beyond rare. 1 went to the Smithsonian, about 40 decommissioned models went to schools, and a few were hidden by owners. The rest were destroyed. So if you can get one running (and improved with modern lithium) it would really be a unique piece.

I look foreward to seeing your experts. Ive wondered about the cost involved in testing and rebuilding one of those packs to make an off grid ev pack that still can charge with modern infrastructure. I still want my vehicle to be petrol, but I want extended off grid electrical.

@jlclark13072 6 месяцев назад

That could be a NEON that was electrified but GM also made an EV that was tested and supposedly destroyed.

@LostSoul-dp6gb 6 месяцев назад

I can't remember the name of it to save my life but it cane out around the same time as the 1st edition of the Honda Insight and was strictly a lease only thing. Supposedly once the lease was up, GM didn't give you the option to buy and repo'd the cars back to be destroyed. Sort of a long term test project for EV viability I think.
