i am not concerned with being exactly historically accurate and i like the 4" longer door. does any other manufacturer have a similiar desing?
Midstates offers a "big boy" version of their car. The body is quite accurate, strong and the wheelbase is not lengthened. They have designed the drivers seat so a 6' + guy can easily sit in the car. Bob Kalilo at Midstates is one of the best and their product is topnotch. Call him before you decide on anything.
