That would be Ron Hyde (parapantera at aol.com), haven't heard from Ron for a while, hope he is OK.

Guys,
I know several owners have converted their cars over to use power-assisted clutches, including at least one super fellow in Oregon who was in a wheelchair and successfully modified his car on his own. For the life of me I can’t remember his name (which is shameful of me), but I think it was documented extensively in the POCA newsletter.
Jim Demick and I are working together to help a fellow from overseas for whom Pantera ownership was a bucket list item. He bought a super duper car which is currently at Jim’s house. He flew over to see it for the first time and due to his handicap he absolutely can’t depress the clutch (which is a standard clutch). The so-called “effort reduction kit” used on the later cars actually increases effort in the beginning of clutch travel, so that won’t work either.
He either converts to power clutch master, or has to sell the car.
Please help me help him!
