Evolution continues. I was having my Camry serviced last week. A good car and my third Camry as it was excellent for traveling as I did. Talking to the guy I bought mine from he advised all Camrys are now hybrids. That was a big step by Toyota.

1971 Renault R16, predating electrics. 1976 nonelectric Ford Escort now, too old and worn out to bother converting.

As to the Escort, it may be worth more than you think.
