My daily driver is a Fiat 500e and it's really punchy

But, most of these aftermarket ev motors that are affordable are only like 80-100hp, only the really expensive ones can replace that good old v8 feel

I briefly researched doing an EV with the Lemans - essentially if you are not running lithium ion or equivalent you are running a large golf cart.

Does it even matter at this point?

He does go on a bit about "54535" or whatever on the dash, like anyone gives a damn what the miles are on a 301 car that's been apart for 30 years in the dirt in a lean-to.

'65 Bonneville for sale in Melbourne. A lot of money but would cost a lot more than this to build up a rough one to this standard.

Absolutely love the color combo on that car, inside and out. From eyeballing the paperwork, I believe that's painted top too, not cordova.
