Hi Leonardo and welcome.

I think you have a good candidate for conversion there. I look forward to seeing your progress.

Your english is quite good, probably better than a lot of us who speak english as our first language.

Feel free to pick our brains for information on your project. But as always I recommend defining your expectations in writing:
Vehicle purpose
Vehicle weight
Acceleration
Top Speed
Range

Thank you Galderdi,
I'm going soon to restore the car and maybe it would be the right moment to take off the old petrol engine...
I'm quite confused about the purpose of the transformation.
Obviously I'd like a fast car with great range for a cheap price.
The original performances of the car are about 130 km/h (80 mph) max speed and a 0-100 (0-60) in something near 20-25".
700 kg and 34 hp
I use it to travel in the weekend, go to meetings and if possible for the holidays. Not as a daily. I'd like a good range but I think it's quite hard to achieve...



What I like about the car is the chassis divided by the body:

And the space under the bonnet

A professional conversion company in Italy asked me:


5900 € + 22% VAT for the conversion
95 km/h max speed, road legal


Plus battery packs (5h full charge, 2h 80%)

6000 € + 22% VAT 100 km range

8000 € + 22% VAT 150 km range

Hi again, I think you have answered the question.

purpose of the transformation = fast car with great range for a cheap price. travel in the weekend, go to meetings and if possible for the holidays. Not as a daily. I'd like a good range.

That is a very interesting chassis.

Do you have an idea of the components you would like to use?
