    Is it really DIRECT FIT???

    Can I bolt this in the 66 convertible with a couple of D cells and go fast for 1/4 mile or so?

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.

    Doesn't say much about the longevity of the Mock Mustang is they are already offering replacement motors....

    Damned millenials can't leave things alone....

    Convert the hood to a solar panel for charging.
    Battery under the hood and throw motor in the trunk.

    I found this article about the system.
    Build one from scratch.

    I guess everything is going electric.  I'm putting outlets in for toilets now in many of the bathrooms I renovate.

    No, but apparently toilet paper is out of fashion.  Everyone wants a deluxe wash and wax now...
