Our friend Ritchie in Australia turned me on to evtv.me. The site is a series of videos by Jack Rickard and "Brain" Noto. I haven't figured out all of Jack's background, but he and Brian used to publish Boardwatch Magazine back in the days of dial-up computer BBS systems. He also owns two DC-3s and a Lear airplane.
The video series starts off with a description of the electric conversion they did on a Porsche 356 Speedster. I'm about halfway through the videos on a conversion they're doing to a BMW Mini Clubman.
The videos are a combination of electric vehicle news, deep battery technology analysis, strong opinions on the industry and hands-on tear downs and electric part installation.
Be prepared to spend many, many hours of your life watching the videos. They do more rather slowly, but it's a good, casual style mixed in with a tremendous amount of valuable information.
I've found the video streaming from the evtv.me web site to be problematic but they have also mirrored their videos on youtube.
