Hi Bill,
I finally tracked you down! I joined ClubLexus recently and of course your project met a road block in that Lexus Hybrids were just too new to find in salvage. I knew you were relooking at the Prius, but you left no forwarding address!!! Alas, you can run but you can't hide! Actually it was pure luck I found you here. I was drawn in by the 1946 Chevyota and then started perusing the project library on this forum. I joined immediately!
Nowadays, there are plenty of wrecked but running Lexus hybrids out there. I got a GS450H at an insurance auction in southern California. Relatively cheap. It will be going in a 1950 Plymouth Business Coupe. Not exactly a muscle car. I am leaning toward a drive train swap, although the 46 Chev did a partial uni-body to frame adaption which intrigues me. We'll see. Just getting started, although I have done a 1961 Volvo EV conversion from scrap, so know most of the components involved.
So I am looking forward to going through your process. Is there any way to see the Photobucket pix?
John
