No no no it needs a piston engine!

Pretty well done IMO! It would cost a small fortune to do, but I dig it.

The challenge remains sourcing a battery pack, as no one really makes a good one yet. Roadster Shop did the custom chassis work for the F100 - some fun photos here: https://roadstershop.com/galleries/1978-ford-f-100-eluminator/

Exactly. The battery and power electronics are the challenging piece. If someone put some effort into making a modular plug and play system, I think it would get interesting.

Personally, I don’t have an interest in converting any of my old cars, but I love the new crop of performance EVs.

Looks like pretty slick packaging of the “skateboard”-style Mach E pack.
