Man converts car to run on batteries

After getting parts from ElectroAuto, Tom converted his Saturn to all electric, a costly mod, but more people seem to be interested in doing this lately… – “Tom Wittman’s 1994 Saturn may look the same as other cars on the road, but it costs considerably less to drive. Wittman, 52, of the 200 block of Osage, Jerseyville, has converted the motor so the car runs strictly on electricity. The car, actually worth $2,000 to $3,000 in the blue book, cost Wittman between $8,000 and $9,000, but he said it will save him money in the long run.”Link.
