Re: 69 3.0 GT at Wire Wheel

2002-03-13 by mark_saxby

Can't help with the car (Except that it sounds a great spec :^))).

I'm 5'9" with a 32" inside leg and I can drive my car quite 
comfortably. The pedals come back a fair way with the wheel and then 
there's some more to be found by adjusting inside the pedal box.

Cheers,

Mark
