The net weight gain for the civic will be about 150 lbs. Here is how it breaks down. I took the ICE engine into recycling today and it was 130 lbs. for a grand total of $2.60. That brings the grand total for recycling to about $8.50. Wow!

1993 Honda del Sol
This is a conversion project of a 1993 Honda del Sol to a 144V electric vehicle. This EV is expected to have a maximum speed of 85 MPH and a sustainable speed of 55-65 MPH. Its range should be 60 miles. The onboard chargers can be plugged in to any 110 outlet and charge up the batteries overnight. Currently the total budget including the donor vehicle is $13,500.
'88 Honda Civic Wagon
My first conversion was an '88 Honda civic wagon converted to a 72v system, with a max speed of 45 mph, a range of 18 miles for about $4000
