Electric FC3S
Has anyone ever tried converting their FC to electric? I know that it defeats the purpose of owning an FC but we all know that FC3S owners are of a different breed

I've seen an electric 1st gen. Search the internet and see if there's a company that makes a conversion kit for the older B-series pickup. The TII transmission apparently matches it.

There was an electric FC project for sale on CL a year ago or so in Vancouver, WA.
