David's Electric Eagle Talon Photos


All of these pictures are hosted at my flickr page here. I don't host the images on my own web server because my DSL connection is too slow and flickr automatically takes care of keeping different sizes of the images, etc. I will be adding most of the relevant images here, but once you click an image you will be taken to the image on the actual Flickr site.

My Electric Talon at Kennedale Park Electric Talon at work 1993 Eagle Talon Back of the car with new lettering
Parked at Kennedale Park on one of its first test-drives out of the neighborhood. At the parking lot at work, on my first day to test-drive it to work. Sitting in my driveway the day after it was towed to my house still housing a blown gasoline engine under the hood and a flat tire. I applied some vinyl lettering to the back bumper to say "ELECTRIC VEHICLE."
