I've been seeing more and more Electric Reto-mods around, and when they are well done, as the example below is in my opinion, I happen to think they are stunning.
To me, they are a natural extension of the time old restoration and/or modification of classic cars, and keeping in mind that Hydrogen Fuel Cell conversions will (to remain close to clean) utterly neuter the performance of any ICE (by around 50%), they are a way of keeping these classics on the road, admittedly with the loss of the sound we associate with them.
So with that in mind, what do my fellow GTPers think of these, and what are the best examples you've seen around.
