Hey, if Nasty Boys are considered fair game on this
list... I certainly think an electric version of an
MGA is very cool as well. Besides, aside from the
twin cams, the MGA motor is only one tiny step up from
a Bugeye motor... a bit of a buzz box!
What I think would be even cooler is to make a turbine
powered traction motor design (like they use in
locomotives)... I bet you could get insane gas mileage
and good power with that... and you could make the car
four wheel drive! Use a small APU turbine would be
perfect. When I make my millions, that's what I'm
going to do with some old car....
Cheers,
