to modify a used car to help me drive

Hi, my name is Michael, and I have Cerebral Palsy. My legs are the weakest part of my body, and I must wear braces to get around. These restrict my ankles from bending. So I haven’t been able to drive a regular car.

My mom is single and has been taking me to college and a part-time work program, but my schedule conflicts with her work.

I can’t afford lift and Uber all the time and have the opportunity to purchase a vehicle at a reasonable price. However, I will still need to have it serviced and modified to have hand controls and pay for special training for handicapped driving lessons. So anything would greatly help me achieve the goal of becoming independent. Thank you!
