A blogger built a go-kart from the “skeleton” of a Tesla Model 3. Blogger Remmy Evans purchased a completely disassembled Tesla Model 3. The car was missing body panels, seat belts, and the windshield. Despite this, the blogger was able to drive it off-road and even drift using the remains of the electric car.
After a bidding war, the electric car (or rather, its remains) was purchased for just $2,000. The previous owner had planned to use it for a 1970s concept car project but abandoned the idea after estimating it would require 800 hours of work to complete. What remained were the battery, motors, steering wheel, seats, and screen.
After changing the tires, the blogger charged the car, and the system showed a range of 341 km. However, charging itself was difficult. The adapter had to be literally filed down using tools. Without a software update, charging such an electric car took over 14 hours.
The system also generated 78 errors due to missing safety sensors. This allowed the electronic restraints to be disabled, making it possible to drift freely.
