The current project of my dreams is to hybridize my 1993 Tercel (yep, a Tercel, the first car I owned and I still love it) into a PHEV. ~100hp electric, ~82hp gas engine, both usable at the same time or independently. I can zing around on electric for my short daily commute or fire up the gas engine for long drives and/or fun mode. Relatively small battery pack so its not crazy expensive.

Sadly, I have neither the time nor money to undertake this project at this time.
