Not Ranked
Bryan, when I bought my car I seriously considered making it electric. The B&B frame is perfect for a conversion. Like was said in the video there is plenty of room for batteries. It will be interesting to see what the overall cost are. When I was looking into it I think it was running about 8-10K for the parts not including the batteries. I would think for the next version you would not want to narrow the axle so you could put narrower rear wheels on. Wide tires are a negative for an EV car.
It would seem if you can get an EV kit going without the electrics they would be cheaper. Less gauges, no fuel tank, and so on could bring the price down.
It will be good to see the detail of this build. Can the guys doing the build take pictures of the detail as they go that you can post. It would be good to see a build thread on the car.
I would put the Lemans fuel cap on the car and open it to plug in the charger.
