If he is paralyzed from waist down he should be able to put the chair in the truck with him, passenger seat or in the ext cab portion. There are quite a bit of people in chairs in the scene. Orange Dodge, Yellow Dodge and now a Jeep with a 5 speed also Full size Chevy from Characters, green Chevy with the tilt camper(talked about above), Nissan out of Texas and my wifes Magnum to name a few. #1 problem is it is hard for them to fix small problems by themselves(out of reach), so try to make it where they can reach most items. Wiring for switch box or solenoids. If you have any questions feel free to ask I'm always excited to see someone in a chair still living normal life's. Allot of them look at it as a death sentence when it dose not need to be. Good helping out!

A mini will be more of a challenge, but I have the same feelings as Jamie ^^   The guy in the yellow fullsize Chevy from Characters is a close friend of mine. The audio system was setup in the back to be completely on the pass side. hat way he can break his chair down and put it behind him. But if he wants to run a shell, that pivoting shell and crane will be the chit! Again, the mini will pose a greater challenge, but it can always be overcome. GOOD LUCK!

Dose anyone have pics or know the guy with the Nissan out of Texas. His hand controls are dope and I wanted to get some info on them. My lades are an older out dated system. Hey Jizz is he still showing his truck I havent seen him lately? His atari is bad ass.

Hasn't been out in a while, doesn't want to go when it's hot (which is most of our shows now) but it's understandable with his situation, and is waiting for me to get off my ass and finish mine so he has someone to go with. But still has the truck, still drives it everyday

We've got a few specialty vehicles in the club. One is along the lines of what you are looking for as far as controls.  The green taco has a hand lever setup that controls both throttle and brake. You twist down and its throttle- push the handle forward and its brakes. I'm waiting for him to send me pictures.

You can contact him through his web site which is http://www.bdmpastx.com or he is also an admin on my site http://www.htownshowscene.com  Oh and for some reason Fire Fox thinks his site is malicous so you have to use Internet Explorer to view it.
