I was thinking about this, and even if you don't make it fully look like a stock engine, the idea of making an electric motor package that uses the mounting style of popular V8's is a pretty cool idea. It'll definitely make doing retrofits a lot easier when a guy can buy a package that will more or less bolt in to the factory mounts.

Until now I have not been enthusiastic about electric cars but this has me thinking! Great job. Thank you.

I liked the idea for my 83 Ford F100. Just need a manual trans for it and get rid of the AOD.

[ShockMe]

It’s a cool concept but I don’t think it can replace the sound and the feeling of the rumble and pure raw power.

hello Mr. Chris. I would like to take a moment first to congratulate your magnificent work on this build. Also I wanted to discuss with you the possibility to have you as a guess in our Electric Vehicles course we're taking in our school. of you could please contact me so I can arrange things with my teachers. it will be an honor to hear from.you and your experience about this build since we're the first group 9f mechanics taking this specialization in Canadá ( At least in Montreal - Quebec). thanks in advance and hoping to hear from you soon. God bless you and keep up the magnificent work

So what is the final cost for all this awesome conversion? And what range (distance) can that truck travel? Its awesome.

[james]

It took a hammer blow better than the cybertruck!

[stevet]

Very nice craftsmanship. Gas engines weren't made to look like horses why make an electric motor look like a gas engine? Storage space or something cooler with the extra space instead?

I love all these videos, they are informative, entertaining, and funny all at the same time. I can't wait to see more. I'm sure one day they are gonna blow up and be really famous like Rich Rebuilds.

[ninoreeves]

where are you located? are you going to do conversions for customers? sell kits? thank you..

[stevencorrea]

I hope you add speakers and sound effects of stock V8

[omgbbqcia]

this is amazing. just, breathtakingly amazing and im not even an electric car fan.

[ezeJeff]

I don't care if it looks stock. But this truck looks fantastic. What a great job. I'd love to have one also. Much better than the usual EVs

[donscott]

Well done! Humorous and fun. Maybe their is a future for hot dodders. But I'd suggest a sound track to mimic an overcammed small block.

I'd love a flathead for my 36 Ford
