DIY Cheap Porsche EV conversion cost only $6500.
It is THE most basic EV conversion possible, yet it still makes the evening news in Arizona and the AP newswire, even the front page of Yahoo.
$8200 worth of EV parts inc 12x deep cycle SLA (144 volts) and DC drivetrain minus $1700 from selling the old Porsche motor.
The best part: 22 mile round trip costs 21 cents per charge (off peak overnight) that's $0.01 per mile!
Car has a range of 50 miles per charge.

Electric vehicles were actually around in the 1800's. Before the combustion engine automobiles became popular. The elite decided there was more money to be made in combustion vehicles.

Love the idea of converting such a car to an EV,
the only type of that that would be that cool as an EV would probably be some V8 musclecars with a strenghtened chassis and lighter (maybe plastic) bodypanels.

the lead acid battery does not last for 2,000 charges like another viewer posted. they last around 400 charge cycles before needing replacement. A battery company just revealed its lead carbon battery based on lead acid batteries yet use carbon vs all lead plates, allowing it to survive over 2,000 cycles. public selling of them has no began yet though

The Tesla also costs 100,000. Just buy a Ferrari. If you want an electric car, do what this guy did.
