Wheelchair Conversion Van

 

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION:

HISTORY:  I purchased this conversion van early in 2013 for my wheelchair bound father.  It worked well for our purposes, but he passed away the end of last year, so it’s time for a new owner to make use of this specialized vehicle. 

It is a REWAV full-cut lowered floor conversion installed by New Mobility Solutions in Jackson, MI.  The conversion was brand new when purchased, and it still smells brand new inside.  We immediately installed a set of Cooper CS4 225/65R16 tires, and have driven it less than 2,000 miles since our purchase.  

I ran an AutoCheck report before buying the van.  It checked out clean and qualified for their Buyback Protection Plan with a score of 85 (79 – 85 range for similar vehicles). 

This Type of rear entry wheelchair van is easy to use.  You just open the rear hatch, unlock and drop down the ramp, wheel the chair up the ramp, and attach the included four Q’straint retractable restraints.  The restraints are removable with a quick release system and can easily be removed when loading and unloading the wheelchair.  There are a number of attachment locations and the rear seats can be removed for more versatility.  Wheelchair passenger lap/shoulder belts included in the package from Q’straint. 

This rear entry van is much more practical than the side entry vans I looked at.  With the side entry you need a very wide parking spot to load and unload the wheelchair.  The rear entry only needs a regular parking space.  Plus you don’t have the maintenance and complications of the electric or hydraulic lift systems. 

Although there are over 100K miles on the vehicle, it is in fine condition and very clean.  The original owner of the van used it in a commuter vanpool putting mostly highway miles on it. 

You won’t go wrong with this wheelchair van.  It is ready to go and be used for the purpose for which it was converted! 

SPECIFICATIONS:  3.3L V6 OHC Engine, 4-Speed Automatic Transmission, 4-Wheel ABS Brakes, Front Disc/Rear Drum Brakes, Front Wheel Drive, Rack & Pinion Steering, 225/65R16 Tires, 20.5 Gallon Fuel Tank, 121.2” Wheelbase, 202.5” O/A Length, 76.9” O/A Width, 68.9” O/A Height. 

FEATURES:  Power Windows, Driver Airbag, Passenger Airbag, Side Head Curtain Airbags, Keyless Entry, Power Door Locks, Air Conditioning, Rear Heat/AC Controls, AM/FM/CD Stereo, Interval Wipers, Anti-Theft System, Stability Control System, Tilt Steering Column, Rear Window Defogger, Rear Wiper, 12V Front & Rear Power Outlets. 

OPTIONS:   Cruise Control, Power Adjustable Outside Mirrors, Power Rear Quarter Windows, Second Row Folding Seats, Carpeted Dodge Front Floor Mats, REWAV Conversion ($12,500 installed).

Dodge to sell off first Challenger SRT Hellcat for charity

Sun, 27 Jul 2014


Want to get your hands on a new 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, and can't wait to be the first to get one? Las Vegas will be the place to be on September 27. That's where Barrett-Jackson will auction off the very first example. And you'd better bring your checkbook, because the bidding is sure to be fierce with all the proceeds going to charity.
The supercharged Challenger with VIN 0001 has been hand-painted in Stryker Red (usually reserved for the Viper) and features special badging, documentation and accompanying memorabilia - not to mention, of course, that 707-horsepower, 6.2-liter supercharged Hemi V8. The car will be on display this weekend as well at Barrett-Jackson's Hot August Nights auction in Reno.

2015 Dodge Viper getting small increase in power

Tue, 29 Jul 2014

The Viper is used to being the most powerful car in the Dodge and SRT stables, but the arrival of the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat means that's no longer the case. The serpentine supercar is, however, reportedly getting a small boost in output for 2015, amounting to all of five horsepower.
The increase was uncovered by Road & Track courtesy of the SAE J1349 certification process to which Detroit's Big Three automakers submit themselves and which reports the Viper's output at 645 hp instead of the 640 it was rated at until now. There are a hundred factors that could have contributed to the relatively mild boost in output (best guess? nothing at all changed...), but we doubt anyone's going to complain about some extra horses under the hood.
The five-horsepower boost brings the Viper that much closer to the 650-hp Chevy Corvette Z06, not to mention the 707-hp Hellcat, but the Viper's impressive power-to-weight ratio ought to mean it'll have little problem keeping up in a straight line - which is just one of the reasons why Chrysler won't shoe-horn the Hellcat into the Viper: as R&T points out, the supercharged engine is too heavy and the blower makes it too tall to fit in the Viper's engine bay.

Chrysler almost smothered the Hellcat before it lived

Thu, 06 Nov 2014

Chrysler's 6.2-liter supercharged Hellcat V8 was an absolute sensation from the very moment it was announced, and honestly, how could it not have been? Packing 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, its numbers immediately put every other production muscle car (and many supercars) to shame. Plus, we soon learned that would be wrapped in a package retailing for around $60,000 - a pittance compared to other vehicles offering similar grunt. However, the Hellcat almost never got the chance to rumble under the hood of the Challenger and Charger.
The Hellcat was initially proposed back in 2011, back when Fiat was deciding its future strategy for Chrysler Group, according to Automotive News. At the time, the company was just emerging from its bankruptcy doldrums, and an ultra-high-performance V8 wasn't exactly a must-have item. The program didn't move forward. However, SRT engineers kept fighting, according to AN, and four months later, they received the green light to pull the project off the shelf and continue developing the Hellcat. The muscle car world is certainly better for that decision.
The work of those engineers focused on taking Chrysler's standard 6.2-liter V8 and making it reliably handle all of the extra power from the supercharger. "It came down to micron levels of changes in the crank to be able to withstand the pressures of the engine," said Chris Cowland, director of advanced and SRT powertrain, to Automotive News. The changes amounted to switching out about 91 percent of the parts to make the Hellcat, including some quite minuscule alterations. For example, the washer holding the supercharger pulley is embedded with industrial diamonds to keep it from slipping.
