He Spent about 30 grand buying and converting an 80's El
Camino into an electric car. He has some of the batterys
mounted in the back under the bed and the rest under the
hood with a 100hp electric motor and claims it gets 200 miles
to a charge and costs about 1 penny a mile. As much as I love
the sound of a mean V8 I have to admit EV's are cool for
daily drivers.

My '83 overheated for 20 years. Finally got a new triple core radiator and 180 degree thermostat and problem solved. However, this pic was taken during the four years it spent being a catch all in the garage with a busted tranny. It's fixed now and back on the road.

Oooooohhhhhhhh the possibilities!
