Need an "Electric Car Conversion" Manual

Electric Car Conversion on a Ford F150?
I have a small delivery company and wanna try to convert one of our trucks, a 1997 Ford F150, into an electric truck. I have a list of what I need, but need a how-to manual if any such thing is available.
Hi, Jerry!
Check out my "conversion books" page.
There are two classic electric car conversion manuals I think you'll particularly like: "Build Your Own Electric Vehicle" and "Convert It".
Toward the bottom of the page is a downloadable step-by-step e-book (PDF) called "Electric Vehicle Conversions" which covers converting a Chevy S-10 pickup using a kit from Canadian Electric Vehicles.
Best of luck, Jerry!
Regards,
Lynne
