Howdy, Have been kickin' this idea around for some time. How about an a/c diesel / electric bug? Sort of like a locomotive . Diesel generator powers individual electric motors at each wheel, (2 or 4 ) (?). No need for transmission. A foot pedal potentiometer (like a volume control) would control speed. Would this work?
