On the web site is a story about the construction of a home made hybrid, using a 1981 VW Rabbit that was converted (back in 1981) to an electric car. Because the range was only 40 miles per charge, the owner decided to build a pusher out of the front end of a junkyard 1978 VW Rabbit diesel in order to be able to use the electric Rabbit on longer trips.
