tilted up like an outlaw circle track car

 Esteemed and just steamed Fellows,
 I've rebuilt an old dead 36V golf cart and I'd like to put an array on it.
 The problem is that the roof area is only 40 x 65ish and it's 36V. I'm OK
 with a bit of overhang the 65 dimension, but not side to side as it will
 be a head bumper getting in and out. Don't want to put anything less than
 150W up there and more, of course, is mo betta. Got an MPPT controller
 embedded in so higher voltage is not an issue. My first thought is to find
 three old M55s which are only 13 wide, but I'm open to whatever. The
 beauty of the M55s would be they are UPS-able. So... anybody got some?
 Other suggestions? Got lots of trading stock.
 Thanks, Bob-O

   I did that once for a client, I used 3 Yingli 75s , they fit well 
but the array turned out to be to heavy for the Golf Carts roof frame, 
stress cracks started showing up.  I think I still have the 36 volt 
charge controller, built by Solar Converters, it never got installed, if 
you happen to need one its available.
