I picked up the battery pack yesterday. Sixteen 6-volt deep-cycle batteries ... at 65 lbs. each.

This is a project to convert a gas powered 1986 Volkswagen into a 100% electrically powered vehicle. The conversion will entail removing all the gasoline associated equipment and replacing with an electric motor, sixteen 6-volt golf cart batteries and associated electronic controls. The batteries will be recharged using standard 115 or 230 volt household outlets. Initial performance is expected to be: 30-40 mile driving range between recharging and an available highway cruising speed of 65 MPH.
