What car is good for converting to an electric car?
I’m interested in a car that is lightweight, has a manual transmission, and has room for batteries. I’m trying to convert a gas car to an electric car, and I need one that is light, has manual transmission, room for batteries, etc, etc. Has anyone done that and has advice/know a good car for it? I have a limited price range, and I need a relatively cheap car for it. Any suggestions? Thanks.

   The reason is tha toyu have more room you need for batteries as needed recommend something like ford ranger or chevy s10 pickup these will also install small gas powered generator.
   Car or truck the batteries and they came with manual transmissions.
