because i’m thinking about in the future, converting one of the cars that my parents already own and its an automatic. does it have to be manual? or can i get one of those motors that don’t have a transmission like the one in the tesla roadster? not one of those cheap ones that only reach 80 km/h, i mean the ones that can reach highway speed on one gear.
well, here are a few questions that i have.
do electric cars have to be manual? or can they be automatic?
can i convert the transmission to manual? keep in mind that the gear selector is on the steering column.
how much is it to get an electric motor that doesn’t need a transmission?
and last question, which option you go with if you were doing a conversion yourself? (money is not an issue)

I am in the prosess of starting a new business of converting older gas cars and small pick-ups to electric power. I have the technology and a source for all the parts needed, I just don't have the money to get off the ground. My credit is not so good, so I am looking for private investors. This is a much needed product that will help reduce the usage of fossel fuels and greenhouse gases. If anyone out there can help, please let me know.

Hi, my name is Ken Davis. I grew up working on cars, and have always been comfortable under the hood. I also care about the environment, and was searching for some way I could do my part to help fight global warming. Saving some money on my gas bill wouldn't hurt either. A friend suggested I take a look at converting one of my cars to run on electricity, and gave me some tips about how to get started. I put together this blog to share my experience.
