EV VW Camper Conversion: Engine Removal, DC Motor Installation

I'm converting a 1976 Volkswagen camper (Westfalia) to electric. Since I have some low-voltage DC components around, I'll start with a "quick and dirty" conversion to an old motor, just so I can move the camper around in my driveway and test a few things while I decide which AC motor I want to use and designing the high-voltage battery pack. One of the first steps in a conversion is just to get the engine out! I had an electric motor with a VW transmission adapter plate already on it! However, it turns out that while the VW bell-housing pattern didn't change over the years, the clutch did! So, instead of a "four-bolt swap", I had to do some work figuring out the clutch first. After that, I installed the motor and tested spinning the wheels.
