Sidenote; Tom Selleck does a tidy job of keeping that Ferrari out of a full tank slapper coming off the grass. Fair play. My mum used to *really* fancy Tom Selleck when I was a kid. Maybe this was why?
Two things about this opening to an early episode of Magnum, P.I. Firstly, the terrible theme tune. Secondly, the creative licence in the way he takes the roof off that Ferrari 308 GTS. youtu.be/bnHWdGP2ikQ
@GTOpoppy Hi Poppy. Feel free to give us a call. We've got around 18 classic cars in the workshop at the moment getting converted to electric. You're welcome to come up and take one for a spin. 😁👍
Hello - can anyone point me in the direction of interesting people and companies involved in adapting classics to EVs? Looking to speak to a few different bods for an article. An interesting drive would also be hugely appreciated.

With the @electric308 having a few upgrades made by @elecclassiccars - the very generous owner Peter took me for a walkaround. As someone who wants to do an EV conversion in the future, I found this fascinating - hope you do too :)
I've wanted to get green EV numberplates to help spread the word of fully electric cars. Every little bit helps and stops @Josh1C thinking its a REX.
But didn't want to bin my perfectly usable existing plates.
Solution is £1.19 on eBay :D

I’m going to really REALLY struggle to put into words how good this is. Has all the elements that I miss from proper sportscars and I didn’t even miss the V8 noise. Honestly felt like it was originally made as an EV. Well done @elecclassiccars and thanks @electric308
This is a beautiful episode showing again what can be done with our old fossil burners. Yes, it's a niche industry at the moment but there's some very clever people working in this area. @JackScarlett17 meets some and has a drive in this fine old car.

@carwowuk@matwatsoncars No problem. Any excuse for me to go on an electric adventure into the hills of Wales in them. Let's drag race one against a V8 LS swapped Defender, that'll be fun. 😉👍
On behalf of @BucksEVs, I was delighted to check out the last stage of installation of new @BucksCouncil electric car chargers in Aylesbury today, and that these will be ready for use very soon. Part of a big roll out of new chargers in North Bucks. @bppulseuk
I'm no Magnum P.I. But this doesn't sound like a normal Ferrari 308...but then it is much quicker thanks to the Tesla conversion by @elecclassiccars. But what do you think about the current trend of transforming classic ICE cars to EVs?
Fantastic to see so many familiar faces today as we sounded starting pistol on the campaign for #FullyChargedOUTSIDE. It’s going to be BIG & we’ll appreciate it all the more given the last 18 months. Also saw best-looking #ElectricCar I’ve ever seen. Will sell like hot cakes.
