Finally, an AFFORDABLE EV Conversion.

$4,000 is all that I need to convert any car to Electric. How? By using the Resolve-EV controller, a wrecked Nissan Leaf, and building a De Dion axle rear suspension. And I'm converting a 1962 Mercury Comet station wagon.

I put a TON of time into editing this video and had a lot of fun adding all the comedy sound effects, if you liked it too then please give me a follow. Thanks!

BTW: I said in this video there is a rumor (and it is exactly that, zero evidence of anything more) that a future Resolve update would allow for VW ID.3 batteries. I really don't know where that rumor came from, but it might have started here: https://www.diyelectriccar.com/threads/vw-id3-batteries-swapped-into-a-leaf-on-aliexpress.208306/
