I drove a very early (Chassis #091), SPF without the lowered foot boxes, and noticed that the clearance between the bottom of the Moto-Lita steering wheel and the seat was very, very tight.

The car appeared to be stock as far as the interior was concerned.

Does anyone know if the raised cowl on the new cars has also caused the dash to be relocated, and with that the angle of the steering wheel, increasing the clearance?

That was the one bummer with the SPF, I'm not particularly large or heavy and my leg wouldn't fit under the steering wheel when I was getting in or out.

Getting in, I sort of stepped over the wheel and slid down the back of the seat. But getting out was kind of a pain.

And I like the look of the wooden steering wheel, so don't really want the smaller diameter leather wrapped one instead.
