Leg room 29 CCPU

I am 6' 4" and 190 lbs. I have no trouble entering/exiting our 1928 Tudor, but I would love to see the traffic lights when I am at the front of the line. My workaround is to stop before the lights disappear behind the visor. I get a lot of horn action, but who cares?

Put this on years ago and it sure helps. Got it at Kantor Brothers. The plastic ones with the suction cups are a waste of money

For those of you who made a thinner back rest of plywood and foam, How did you hold the back rest in place ?

Thanks
 
I haven't made mine yet but I plan to make some legs in order for it to stay in place and high enough. I'll use the brackets at the top to model something similar and keep it from tipping forward.
 
I agree with all the post about this topic. Another factor as to how comfortable is not just your height, but how you are built I'm 6'3 with a 35 inch inseam, my friend is 6'3'' with a 31 inch inseam {long body short legs) he firs in a Model A much easier than I do!
 
I'm 6'2'' and 220 lbs. and once I figured out to put my right leg in first as far as I could and then slide in, it was no problem getting in or out of my 29 CCPU. I recently removed the springs in the backrest and replaced them with a slab of 2" memory foam with a 5/16" plywood back and gained close to 2 inches of distance from the steering wheel and pedals. Much more comfortable and safe to drive. You have to remember that your are still driving a truck and no matter what year, cars ride better than trucks. Good luck and enjoy your truck.:)
