Project E - Ford Model A
When Legacy EV Founder and CEO, Rob Ward, first saw Jason Graham’s 1930 Model A Sedan, he never imagined it as an electric powerhouse. The aggressive, meticulously modified Model A embodied every hot-rodder’s dream. Fate intervened, and Ward proposed his beloved Model A for electrification. This marked the birth of “Project E,” a pivotal platform for testing electric powertrains. The result? Since that momentous decision, “Project E” has evolved, serving as the crucial validation platform for integrating various electric powertrains and paving the way for a remarkable milestone—the live gas-to-electric conversion.
