I want to do an EV conversion to my 86 Mercedes once that becomes something affordable to pull off.

  It's affordable now using reclaimed Tesla parts. Here's one vendor: https://www.evwest.com/ https://www.evwest.com/ I really want to ditch the 1.9L H4 Digijet in my '85 Westfalia. It's a total PITA (direct fuel injection and a distributor) but I'm not keen on dropping in a GoWesty or "Subagon" ICE motor when EV is the way to go.

    I have considered doing a swap on my Jeep CJ7, but the costs are just a touch out of reach still. I have a friend who does the copart thing, maybe I'll have him keep an eye out for a cheap wrecked Tesla

    oh god is that one of those "wasserboxers". I hear those are troublesome to say the least which is why they often get replaced with Subaru Engines. I'd trust my weak ass diesel engine to drive me to hell and back, but I know that won't last.
