Yeh, i have seen that car on youtube. Its pretty neat.

About the article though, i dont like how they make it seem like doing an EV conversion will cost you $30,000....

I have enjoyed the Zombie for a while, but the thought of a Pinto is......priceless! I enjoyed Pinto wagons since they all had 2 doors and were about 1' longer than those exploding Runabouts. Thinking of a Pinto is *electrifying*! Thanks for the nice thoughts!
