Already have, years ago. I happened to be living in Austin, Texas at the
time he was building it. At the time they "built it an no one came".  Why
would someone pay $250,ooo (his selling price) for what looks like, at
best, a nice $75,000 custom Mustang? His target market is obviously not the
wife of someone with lots of money that wants to show off her electric
sports car.

Seriously... you are not going to convince someone that wants a musclecar
that they really want a quiet EV one, no matter how quick it is. What's the
value proposition and who holds those values high? This, at best,
represents an EV conversion and we already established that's a good way to
go broke. Again, you need to start a business with a clear vision of your
target customer. Who was he aiming at?!? I have seberal 60s Camaros I couod
convert to EV if I thought there was a market for them. I don't think there
is.

Not sure you could get a good answer on the Zombie project. It wouldn't be
in his best interest to say "Yep, I can build 'em but can't sell 'em!"
Heck, why don't you contact him and see what you can find out. Maybe things
have improved for them in the last few years. Like you,I'd love to know.
