By early afternoon, teams were well on their way to completing modifications on the cars \u2014 a mix of red convertibles and black trucks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shelby Cluck loves playing with her older brother Bentley, 6, and the neighborhood kids.

But once her new wheels were complete, Shelby zipped around in her black Ford truck, emblazoned with her name in colorful stickers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Across the lobby, Marlow Bluvas got a boisterous round of applause from volunteers each time she powered her little car forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mom Kara Bluvas learned about the program from Marlow\u2019s physical therapist. The new ride would help Marlow, 2, keep up with her older brother at home, Mom said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHaving her be outside and be able to play will be really exciting,\u201d Bluvas said. \u201cIt\u2019s awesome that they do this.
