Strangely enough, (and it’s sort of Fiero related) our GGF club (and a few others) used to go to
the “VA” (veterans) show in Redwood City. It was quite well attended by local car clubs because being the show was the weekend nearest Veterans Day, many wanted to show the veterans there their cars and also bring needed items for their well-being like shirts, socks, magazines, soap, shampoo, etc.
Anyways, besides our club having about 7-8 plus Fiero’s, there was also a big showing of the local
PT Cruiser club. One PT Cruiser in particular was driven by a guy in a wheelchair. I spent about 10 minutes or so discussing his conversion. It was quite impressive! First time I’ve ever seen a gull wing PT Cruiser! It was rigged to where he would go up a ramp and his wheelchair would lock right into the drivers side space/area. I asked him about the cost and it was at least $10-12K. I kind of forget the exact amount.

I love that this thread was brought back at the same time. Lack of power steering is a huge obstacle to some people with some disabilities, and being able to add something that doesn't eat into foot space is crazy helpful too! [This message has been edited by NewDustin (edited 10-08-2024).]
