Not a lot of detail yet, but this is awesome.

I know a lot of folks that have old trucks they'd want to convert, I wish there was more details because what's in the picture vs $3900 for a motor is missing a lot.

I have a ‘67 F100 I want to do an EV restoration of. I’ve looked off and on at picking up a used Model S. Can’t do a salvaged one for several reasons. It just never made sense to go for it. This is exactly what I’ve been waiting for. The F100 concept build at SEMA being used to promote this crate system is almost exactly what I want to build. Just waiting for all the details… As of right now the motors are $3900 each and they used two of them (front and rear) for their Eluminator concept build. I can buy the motors just fine, can even order them now. But still no info on the modular battery system or computer/ control interface that we would also need. Hopefully soon. Ford people at SEMA are telling everyone that these components will be available form Ford Performance “soon”.

Thats pretty awesome. I have been thinking about doing that myself. I saw a sweet Porsche 912 that had an electric conversion and I have been dying to do it ever since.
