I would convert a manual transmission car to electric, and hook the electric motor up to the input shaft on the transmission just to be perverse.
Many people do just that. There are whole companies that will sell you adapters to allow you to do this. You can even go without a clutch to save a lot of rotating weight if you don't mind having to finesse the pedal a bit when shifting.
