I would personaly avoid a convertable, the roof adds structure and helps keep the weight down, a convertable just has the floor pan, so it has a heavier floor pan, one that might deform with the weight of batteries.
If you check out EV forums, there seems to be a pattern to people who convert trucks, stuff like I think the S-10 has a wider frame that alows more batteries to be put under the bed, but it weighs more then the other small trucks avalible so you need more batteries and a larger motor.
ford escort wagons seem popular, chevy s-10 are popular, along with geo metros... not to say you should fallow in others foot steps, but learing from them is alwas a good idea.
