Hello
Curiosity, and interest speaks for me

Has anyone made one of these into an Electric Vehicle? If so, how was it accomplished, How much did It cost, and how were the results?

Thanks
^_^

There are a couple youtube videos of a school that built a red one. I even saw one on ebay a few years back. You can expect around 50 miles per charge, have to haul about 700 lbs of batteries around with you, and almost a $12,000 investment.
But you've already stated that you're broke, so not really an option now, is it?!

Well, not now of course.

Still, no harm in being interested in a subject. My intention if I do it, is wait until I am out of college, having kept the truck around. Perhaps continue to drive it until the engine goes even, and then do the conversion.

I also have another long term project in the works for then, a 1969 Opel GT sitting in a barn in ohio. It needs some TLC
