some basic dimensions please
As it is going to rain for the next two days I hope to make some progress on the locost. I am looking for two dimensions please
1. Height from floor to centre of steering wheel, I know there will be many opinions on this but a range of dimensions will help
2. The inside or outside radius of the rear top rail corners for luggage compartment.
Many thanks for any guidance

Best to fix the pedals and seat in position then add steering wheel late in the build so it suits you for both rake and height. The position may be
dictated by oil filters, alternators, engine mounts etc.
I used 3/4" round tube bent using a 22mm plumbers bender for my top rails, for the lower picked up a 1" steel tube framed chair and cut
out the bends.
