Funny you ask that Spin... If you're any taller than me, I'm 5'8, the box as it's designed now is going to be a problem. Even for me, I am in a pretty aggressive driving position with little to no room to adjust. After having to drive last week while I wasn't feeling very well and just wanted to lean back and cruise I realized that there are gonna have to be some adjustments, so those are in the works, he's gonna build a new box with an eye on maximizing seat room.
None of this is the builders fault, he went off of my typical driving position we just didn't take into consideration passengers outside of my wife (she's 5'2 so she's got room for days) and I'm sure we all can understand my not considering anyone else driving my car. He's being gracious enough do another one and since I'm fine with it in almost every instance, I told him that I wasn't in any rush.
So there you go Spin, it's perfect looking and sounding but it's a solid B in terms of comfort for me, and that grade would drop for a passenger over 6ft and a driver over 5'8. Maybe if we both make it out for Z's and coffee sometime you can check it out for yourself.
