That was actually the original thought that started me on this journey. After I 
learned of the chance to buy the Mustang, I started searching for examples of 
people who had done full BEV conversions on them, and came across this site:

He did exactly as you describe with a '66 Mustang and a Motenergy motor in 
place of the alternator.

I want the option to be able to do at least grocery shopping and the like in 
all-electric mode, and roughly a couple dozen miles would be enough range for 
most of my driving most of the time. I think the "micro-hybrid" idea is a great 
idea, but it's not what I'm looking for for this project. (I might toy with the 
idea for my '68 VW Westfalia, though...but one thing at a time.)
