I keep it original but always thought this would be the perfect EV conversion, especially bc it doesn’t have a front grill. can’t wait to see where this project goes. it would he a nice touch to put back the original radio just so it would look full original despite of the EV conversion.

Got your rear hatch access answer. You were pressing the correct button (at the door) to open it. But... There's a button inside the center console (yellow) as a 2nd way to open the rear hatch. And the button thing you were pressing in the back is there to secure the Targa top inside the back (yes the top is removable). My 84's rear hatch pistons are completely shot so I have to push my fingers under the glass to lift it up. Be careful with putting it down though, because you can shatter the glass if it falls down too hard. Going to follow this because I want to find a beat up C4 Corvette and convert it to electric. Also I hate wearing white shoes and shorts haha

Lol, very funny. Glad to see people still have a funny bone. I live just outside of AC,NJ. Would love to see this car next October at the Smithville, NJ Corvette show. One awesome thing about the C4 is all the access in the engine bay. Except the battery, lol. Thought they had a good look but the electrical is a nightmare.

*Ladies and Gentlemen, Will Prowse is in Da' House* NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO that Commercial was Hilarious. i used to own '66 Convertible with 396 engine. blew head gasket then 10 grade high school friends we rebuilt it, we installed one piston wrong ended cracking the block. got a 427 for $50 at junk yard burn oil smoke everywhere but had POWER my friend owns it for the last 40 yrs. in one of his emails he suggested making it electric. edit: it has a 350 Engine, 4 Barrel Holley, Hooker Headers, Hurst 4 Speed Transmission. memories...

What an adventure! I'd love to see you use the Tesla small rear drive unit, which is 220kW and about 300hp since I'm planning to use it in a 996 and would love to see someone else work with it and see how you do the motor controller, etc. They are cheap and you get to ditch the transmission, plus 220kw would be plenty in this car. I saw some Nissan Leaf modules, I'm also planning to use those.
