I would be interested in a group in the Tulsa area. I live in Broken Arrow also and yesterday I brought home the car I am going to convert. It is a 1992 Eagle Talon.

We have a couple of cars in the North Texas Auto Association that is based off that vehicle, a 94 Mitsubishi Eclipse, and a 93 Eagle Talon. Visit our club at: www.nteaa.org , the vehicles are showcased in the members vehicle area.

Great, so that makes two of us. I would love to help you convert your car, or offer any information I may have learned in the past few months. I just joined the EAA and paid my dues. It's only $39.00 so it's not too bad. I will try to get some more interested people and set up a meeting of some sort.

Good thanks for the offer. I will probably take you up on that but it will be a little while before I start on the car. I am trying to get the 2.0 motor running so I could sell it. It had a blown head gasket and the kid replaced and could never get it started.

Hi, I live in Springfield, Missouri and I am looking at all the info on EV's. I would be interested in what you are trying to do. Gary Hart, garyhartracing@yahoo.com

Thanks Gary. I will contact you when we have a few more interested people.

If we OKIES, could ever get enough conversions on the road, and or support, we could hit them hard with phone calls, complaints, petitions, etc, in order to get the Electric Conversions written out of the Act.

We also, need to try and get the Tax Incentive extended beyond the Jan 2009 deadline. I was able to claim 50% of the conversion on my taxes this year, and it saved me alot of money. If I could afford an OEM Conversion, like from LionEV, I'd be able to claim the entire cost of the vehicle with the current incentive.

Can anyone give me a link to this Oklahoma Alternative Fuels Act?
Where is this found?

I'm new to the EV arena, but i would be interesting in an EV club in Tulsa. I live in Fort Smith, AR. I am currently building my first EV a 97 Chevy S-10 using a Warp 9 and 144 Volts. I don't know of any EV clubs in my area but Tulsa is only a hour and a half away.

Let me know!
