    Somehow that looks very uncomfortable to sit in and drive any distance. Hope I'm wrong.

    It's "cozy", head room is great, wish legs were a little shorter, though

    14 months isn't bad. Spare time? Drive it , tweak it, add to it, start the next one. Hot rod owners don't have "spare" time!

    This looks great,nice work. As for leg room? Looks to me like if you wanted to add some,moveing pedals about 3in. forword along with firewall that looks set back from cowel front would help,but it would be extra work,yet there is no prob space wise from photos
