Default I'm back....I DONT WANT TO HAVE TO SELL CAR BUT possible clutch/ leg problem -any ideas??

Sorry for being gone so long .

I ended up getting my new fire job in Tennessee and have been real busy.

Then as luck would have it, I badly broke my left leg on the job and may have to sell the stang to find and automatic,(possibly a CHiP's Camaro I found)if leg heal prevents using clutch. UNLESS SOMEONE OUT THERE KNOWS OF A WAY I CAN CLUTCH AT THE SHIFT HANDLE SOME HOW????? HELP!!!!

If you have to sell why don't you look for a unmarked SSP mustang. They are all automatics since it looks like you like police vehicles. My coupe is an unmarked Florida Highway Patrol stang.

let your leg heal properly, chances are that it'll heal enough to drive you car again, however it may take a years after it's healed to get all the strength back in it... what most people don't know is that you leg dontinues to heal long after the bone has healed, once all the muscle comes back you'll be ok... and if you can't then find a wrecked auto to get all the parts for a swap and do that... i'm sure people on here will help ya out

im sure you could go to some fabrication shop that could put some kind of electric actuator on the clutch so that it clutchitizes it when you press a button...
