1967 Mustang Gas to Electric Conversion

[1967mustang]

Hello veterans, and help!!!
I recently was given a 67 Mustang. It needs some body and interior work, and I am cool with that.
However, I have recently been playing around with the idea of fuel conversion to electric.
I am hearing a lot of things, and do not want to attempt it on my main car, but since this was a freebie, and she is not that cherry, I figured I could experiment on her.

Any tips?

Thanks, and I eagerly await your responses.

P.S.
Also have owned a 73 Fastback Stang with 351 Cleveland, and a 71 Fastback. Love mustangs.

And, where would you be buying the parts and battery packs necessary for an electric conversion?? I don't mean to be unkind, but unless you're an electrical engineer with experience in battery cars, where would you even start? The battery packs on those electric cars are pretty big and costly.

I wish you luck and appreciate you concern for the environment. However, I think this idea is kind of "pie in the sky" and is not very practical at all.

But, good luck if you can find the plans and parts to do such a thing.

I actually found an option I think will work, and no ... lol ... I am not an engineer.

and it plugs into the wall.

Thanks for your input, though.

That's a little short on facts and you pay upfront for the "instructions." If he's so environmentally friendly, why is he selling it rather than providing it? It's your car and you can do what you want with it but I'd be a little more sceptical. One clue is how to find batteries for free. Because you need a lot of them.

Well, good luck. But I know what I'd do with a '67 Stang - try to put it in excellent condition and drive it on weekends.

Take a look at this website - it seems a bit more balanced and objective.
