This book is the leading how-to resource for electric car conversions.

It combines Brown's years of professional automotive experience with down-to-earth language even an automotive beginner can understand.

It is not written for the engineer in the laboratory, but for the home mechanic building his own car, and for the average person behind the wheel.

Brown speaks to the reader as if talking to a friend in his garage.

Before lifting a wrench, Brown answers the most frequently asked questions about electric cars: how fast will it go, how far will it go, how long will the batteries last, how pollution-free is it really, and many more.

The conversion process itself begins with choosing an appropriate donor chassis, and stripping it of internal combustion components.

Here Brown's experience provide numerous tips and tricks to make the later conversion process easier and more successful.
