This is probably a decent project for someone who is considering lesseng their wallet weight. At the very least, they could put a van motor or something in it.

I saw a pristine 924 at a car show a few years ago. The owner bought it and gutted it, turned it into a 100% electric vehicle. Extremely cool conversion!

This seems like a good base for a lemons car. The chances are the seller wants rid of it so much that they’d virtually give it away...

Arbitary dickery: Both pristine and mint would mean in as-original (untouched) condition, which an electric conversion clearly isn’t. I don’t know what the best actual word would be, though.

I love old people who run ads like that asking people to talk on the phone.
Its 2016, grandpa. Post your car for sale in the NEWSPAPER if you don’t want texts.

That’s 7 hours away.... to far, although it does look like it could provide many good parts for mine.

I KNOW. I think I’m going to start doing that as a side line because hipster doofuses need to be funding the shit out of my projects like right meow. Get old G-bodies and things and drop in engineered hybrid systems and make 200% profit? Mmmmm.

I thought there was a FP article about a bolt on solution but I can’t find it.

Hub motors, maybe not. On the other hand, LS swap + hybridizing torque converter and clutch a la first gen Honda Insight... maybe.
Okay it’s a con to sell an LS swap as being green for twice the price is that so wrong
