[W126 Coupe] W126 Electric Conversion

[Dan Landiss]

I fail to see the efficiency of scrapping the insides of a marvelous 
car, and then spending countless dollars and hours to convert it, only 
to move the pollution source from the tailpipe to the power plant 
smokestack.

Have you looked into the challenges of disposing of those batteries when 
they wear out? Talk about a toxic waste problem!

Hey, it's your car, your money, and your hours. I'm just saying if it 
were mine I'd practice on something less valuable.
