Aside from as a learning experience, just wondering why you'd bother? Most people would just junk it and buy a Nissan Leaf if they wanted a hatchback EV- a used one from California can be had for $7,000 USD...
The 323 was a competent little car but nothing to write home about. Not sure it's worth the effort of a conversion, but if it's special enough to you to spend more money converting it than it would cost to just go out and buy a used Leaf, have a look around the Wiki and various build threads here and you'll get lots of ideas. The thing to do these days is to use batteries out of a crashed Leaf, Volt or perhaps modules from a Tesla- the prismatic LFP batteries most of us used in our conversions are more expensive and have a lower energy density than the ones you can get from one of the 2,000,000 EVs on the road today.
