You already can do this. People have been converting older gas cars to electric for years. The biggest hold back was the battery systems. In the past people were using golf cart style deep cycle batteries so it was hard to get range out of them. They'd get maybe 30 miles with a bunch of led acid batteries.. Now people are getting 100-200 miles with custom built battery packs.

Now that people have started building their own battery banks similar to Tesla's or simply using battery packs out of wrecked EV cars. The DIY EV scene is very active and advancing a lot.
