Someone please pay Adam Savage to convert his classic Land Cruiser into an electric vehicle
Maybe you know Adam Savage from the years he spent The Myth Breakerwhere he is not subtle let his car-loving tendencies shape the occasional episode. But now that Savage’s YouTube channel is live, he’s free to unleash some of his biggest automotive ideas—including plans to completely convert his beloved 1982 Land Cruiser into an electric vehicle.
Savage has owned a right-hand-drive diesel Land Cruiser for years, and he’s been wanting to convert it to an all-electric powertrain. In a recent video, when a viewer asked him for an update on the project, he said he was thinking about people who could help him make it happen. He just needed to set aside some cash for the conversion, or—as a working manufacturer who still takes regular customers—he needed a sponsor for the project.
“There’s definitely a chance that some customers will come to us and want a build that meets that need, and in that case, I’ll electrify my Land Cruiser,” Savage said in the video.
It is a situation familiar with Mighty Car Mod fan — a project not necessarily decision The car would be part of the deal, but it would give the builder a chance to create something neat as a tool to use in a separate final project. Marty and Moog built a lot of cars for the Supercheap Auto commercials, and Savage just needed a similar opportunity.
So if you are a high price auto parts supplier, Electric Vehicle Refurbishment Companyor just a like-minded enthusiast with cash to burn, give people at Tested one call. Give Adam Savage the resources to make this dream of an electric Land Cruiser a reality. Personally, I can’t wait to see it.
