I know you've just spent ages restoring the floors, but it would be worth fitting lowered floorpans if you want to keep and enjoy it. Having seen your work I believe you have the skills to do it yourself, try angling the 'pans so they're about four inches lower at the back and regular height at the front. That will both lower and recline the back of the seat a bit more, giving taller drivers a far more comfortable driving position while for short ar*es, sliding the seat forwards also raises it.

It can mean the difference between having to pay a bunch of elephants ransom to get your best friend back -



...or having to alert air traffic control that your head is entering their airspace -



...and having the flies hit the flyscreen instead of your teeth -



...and not falling out in the corners -



Nice car btw, always been one of my favourites. Keep up the good work.
