Someday I would love to drop the body of a '55 Chevy on an EV frame. Really bored by car styles these days for the most part but love the stuff that goes inside them quite a lot.
I’m in a similar spot. I love everything about old 50s era cars but the milage. I love how nice they look. I love how fun they are to work on. I love the cooshiy bench seats. I love the feel of how all the switches and nobs cuthunk all the time. Really I just want a modern engine and transmission to make my bel air a practical car in me modern day. Hell considering how fast I drive I’d be down to engine swapping it with a Prius or something like that. I’ve heard that Corvettes are ridiculously fual efficient despite being a sport car so I should really get around to seeing if thad make my car fast and practical.

I’d love to have a 67 Mustang GT Fastback as an EV with dual motors.
