EV Classic cars

[dickyf]

Whats the view of the masses on the trend in California to convert classics to state of the art electric cars? I'm interested in the idea for certain models IE VW camper and 70s 911s but im not sure if there would be a market for it in the UK...thoughts??

my thought was as a business rater than a hobby.
the cost seems to kill it though.

my 'vision' if you can call it that would relate to high cost cars that have depreciated heavily but still have strong residuals and are desirable.
i.e. R129 SL and R107. The Least desirable models could be used as donors. i.e. small engine ones..
I also think defenders would be a great choice for an elec vehicle....I need to do some market research..
