[DeTomaso] NPC - Electric Buggy

[gow2 at rc-tech.net]

There are 2 seats! I welded in tubing for doors if I ever want to make some.

It does look a lot better with the light bar. If the electric motor is not
strong enough I will be exploring other options. I think it should be fine
though. Others are using it in similar set ups.

I did mount a trailer receiver slightly off center near the front of the
bed to put a jib crane.
