Those batteries look 50 years old.

Yeah, can’t imagine 35+ yr old batteries have much life left in them. It’s kind of a cool car, but this guy is looking for a very unique buyer at that price. I see Nissan Leaf all-electric cars a few yrs old listed for $5-7k.

If it was local to me I’d buy it

$1500(asking) is tempting, but with two ongoing projects, sorry, NFW. :-(
