Almost converted an XJ, bought a 2-door '96 XJ w/ 5speed stick shift for $1k with a blown engine and it was too rusted to work with. Unibody rails were completely gone on the inside!yeah, cash… that constant trouble… anyway, I have a 1998 Jeep XJ Cherokee Sport, that is in really good shape. It’s a 4.0L inline 6, with an automatic transmission. Almost completely free from rust, really solid. We’ve had it for about 10 years, and before that it belonged to a friend since it was almost new. I think we’re the third owners. We started talking about buying an electric car in about 18 months when our current car lease is up, but looking at the cost, yikes 😳 . So then we thought, how about a new project 😂
Don't expect to do better than OEMs on price with an EV conversion but the cool factor could make it worthwhile 😁
