Seems to be a fair number of 914's are getting converted to electric power. I have mixed thoughts. i love internal combustion engines. I also hate to see original cars modified. On the other hand, I'm a firm believer that man/woman can do what they wish with their own property. I also like the idea of driving around for 2 cents a mile. I even kicked around the idea of doing my own EV, but the batteries are just not there yet. You can get good batteries, but you would never save enough on gas to pay for them. a GOOD set is about 8-12K for lithium Ion. The old Lead Acid are just too heavy and who wants a car that can only go 30-40 miles? |

In what car can you drive around for $0.02 per mile? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
