I once saw an MG that had been modified for a guy who had a very bad
left leg.  A hand lever, like a motorcycle clutch lever, had been
mounted on the shifter and connected to a clutch slave cylinder.  Might
be something to think about if your client has good hand strength.  It'd
be a pretty easy mod compared to full solenoid-controlled shifting.
