The car did highway speeds before so I'm assuming it will again. I would rarely have occasion to take it on the highway anyway and not for more than 15-20 min. at a time. Most of my driving is short trips in town.
Volt batteries were my first thought, but I'm not sure their configuration will work well for this car. Lots of restoration work to do first anyway, so time to think about that.
