Remove the passenger seat for access, handbrake is tight to the drivers seat. Gear leaver is dash mounted, clutch can be done as a hand control if required ;)

So if the clutch is on hand control..... How about the throttle and brake?  ::)

Never said an old Transit :D

Granted, auto would make life easier, but an indented cam within the linkage would provide a pressure point to keep the lever and clutch disengaged to allow for moving off/stopping ;)

If I were you, I would be more worried about folding the ramp up for stowage from a wheel chair inside the vehicle :P
