I am coming down the home stretch on this build that I’ve been working on for what seems like forever. That’s because it has been forever! Now the seats. I. I stripped the old seat springs, cleaned them up and epoxy primed and painted them. I gave the seat springs to my upholsterer to recover in leather. He did a really nice job and I love the way they are not stock but not over the top fancy. My problem is I can hardly fit behind the steering wheel. I know I’m getting kind off portly but I’m really up on top of the wheel. That makes turning the wheel kind of difficult. I honestly have never driven one until this one. With the seat pushed all the way back I measure 12.5” from the seat back to the steering wheel and 6” from the wheel to the seat bottom. Im thinking he may have over stuffed the seats. I think he may have put about 2” of foam on the springs.
