For the rest of you, has anyone on the list discussed or know of a
conversion of an MGB to either an electric car or to a diesel so it
can run on vegetable oil?
There was an interesting article in the NYTimes yesterday about a
vegetable oil conversion diesel Volkswagon and I got to
thinking. Take out the heavy engine (replace it with heavy
batteries???? :) ) and my 76 B would weight ~1700-1800 lbs. I would
think that would be in the ballpark for an electric conversion.
Or replace with a diesel and one of the conversion kits mentioned in
the article.
Just a thought....
