I might just be missing it through search, but has anyone seen or done a conversion with an FFE as a donor? I’m looking to do a Mazda5 and thought that using a platform stable mate might make it a bit simpler since the motor mount locations are likely the same.
Thanks! Still definitely in the planning stage, but I’ve been looking at replacing my Impreza with an EV for awhile and while a lot of the options on the market are very nice, they’re not really what I’m looking for (smallish with sliding doors). I’ve been following conversions a little bit off and on for a couple decades, but now with all the OEM rigs out there it seems like its a great time to hop in.
If we could import stuff from overseas that was newer than 25 years I’d grab a Ford B-Max instead, but since that’s unobtanium the Mazda5 is the only small van we have here unless I go back to an original Caravan or Voyager. (If anyone has a lead on a TEV Van or EPIC, I would buy one in a heartbeat if the price wasn’t too ridiculous.)
