Manure in your shoes!!!!!

That's what you need. In my locost I used adjustable seat runners on the drivers side, but if you are going to be the only driver you could tailor the position to you. Move the seat and column to where you feel reasonable and fix at that.It can't be harder than drilling a couple of extra holes.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

why not just put the seat on runners? The book idea of makign everything fixed seems really hit and miss to me. Get it wrong and yer stuck with it.

I managed to adapt the seat runners from the donor car to go on my bought in seats.

I'm only 5'8", my seats are quite far forward, enough room to stick a small amount of shopping, a couple of coats etc.

If you are fairly close, you could come down to take a look





If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

Wouldn't it be easier to move the peddles foward.

I went for floor mounted peddles for the opposite reason as I am a thin lanky git.
