Default Newbie, and another tall one....

Hi all,

I have lurked here for several years and and am finally now serious about building a Cobra. Has been a dream for over 20 years (I am 36 now), but just never really thought I would fit. I am ready and determined now, but just need to find the right fit for my 6'6", 240 lb body. I am used to "squeezing" into cars, but have not sat in a Cobra yet (partly to not kill the dream....if I don't fit)

I will be in Texas this week, and plan to visit Lone Star to hopefully sit in my first Cobra, realizing that it is a 94" "extended" wheelbase, which may be what I need....

I have read of dropped foot boxes, special seating, and other things to improve fit, as well as the 7+ footer in the 289 (Bob E)...Amazing! Now its my turn to do the research to find the fit for me. It will be fun.

Talk to you later,

Mark
