Good luck with your search.
I am just over 6' and weigh in over 100kg. I am now on my fourth Cobra - thanks Craig at Absolute Pace - and have been comfortable with the difference in each and the modifications I have made.
The first two cars Both RMC's allowed me to move the floor down in front of the seat and lower down into the footwell and allowed me to pull the seat cushions apart and later do away with seat slide mechanisms.
When I was re building my GT40 I made similar interior changes, calling on all the mods I had completed on the Cobras. So you can make changes to fit into these cars.
The current Cobra I have has plenty of room and Craig and I have made some improvements. - after R and D - with a 'Burney bubble' under the seat that allows my drivers seat to drop 20 - 30mm down under the floor line.
Additionally,we have made slight adjustments to the inner guard area behind my drivers seat that
allows the seat to go back an additional 30mm. Makes for a lot of additional interior room with each change.
We have made slight adjustments to the steering column lifting it slightly - about 5mm - using the smaller diameter steering wheel has made a big difference also. This change is not obvious when looking at the car, in fact none of the changes can been seen.
Every small change that Craig makes is evaluated and added into future cars as an option.
Craig's cars are designed to be very quick builds with a lot of the brackets, pre drilling already done. They really are a very quick build.
One of the things that has really impressed me with Craig's approach is his willingness to listen to customers like myself. He has made countless changes back and forth to ensure I am happy.
Yes I agree, give Craig's shop a visit. I have recent photos in my gallery of my last visit there. It is quite amazing to see the work that is taking place there. I will "Post" some new photos after I return from Absolute Pace next Thursday.
I am certainly very happy with my choice. And obviously willing to support Craig in the promotion of his business as both a customer and friend.
Again good luck in your search JD. But I would certainly include Craig on your list of must see suppliers.
