@robuffo5 – Are there any issues with Insuring this vehicle? ...
Zero issues insuring this vehicle — there are many companies that specialize insurance in classic cars such as Hagerty. Registering it should also be straightforward, as it retains the proper VIN plate. Additionally, it is exempt from emissions requirements since it is a 1972 model year.
Are there any issues with Insuring this vehicle?

@97bears – What battery modules were used? Tesla modules? New cells? Salvage? Can you also speak to the batteries' thermal management system, if any? Thanks? ...
@97bears — Thanks for the questions. The electric conversion and drivetrain were completed by Vintage Iron and Restoration, and the system uses two NetGain Hyper9 motors in tandem controlled by a Thunderstruck Motors control system and software. The setup produces 186 kW and approximately 880 Nm of torque, operating on a 128-volt system with a max RPM of 9,000. Regarding the battery system, it is not Tesla modules. The pack is a custom modular design built in-house by Vintage Iron, using prismatic cells with a total capacity of 66.6 kWh. About 1/3 of the battery capacity is located in the engine bay, with the remaining 2/3 mounted where the fuel tank was originally located. Charging is handled through dual onboard chargers, with the charging port located in the factory fuel fill location. I do have some documentation on the build.
BID: $25,000
@Affordable - do you still have any of the wiring diagrams for the build that was done to the car? Are those documents included with the sale of the car?
BID: $20,000
