Not the biggest
 
I'm certainly not the biggest, but I'm 6'4 and at one time weighted 280. I was able to ride comfortably and I have a 90" wheelbase cobra. I have a 16" steering wheel and a reduced hight seat cushion. Go for it.

I'm only 5 ft 18 inches and weigh 22 stones. :LOL: :LOL:
There is someone on this site that is 6 ft 9".

I'm 4' 20", and weight 1/8 ton.

You're just a puppy ;) Seriously your size would not be a deal breaker for the Backdraft. Additional interior space over others and we have a wide and wider seat option that goes a long way.

Where in NY?

I'm 6'4" and 260 or so. No problem in my superformance with a slight seat modification - we took half the foam from the seat.

You are all just pups. We have an owner (ex ball player) 6' 8" and a bit over 325 with a shoe size of 15. He did add a quick release or removable 15" steering wheel as the final touch.

I just extented the peddles forward and I fit at 6'5, 225lbs. It all depends on where your height is (legs v. body).
Sit in a number of different Cobra's and find the one you fit in. None are really comfortable, but find what you like.

Good luck:)

My son drives mine and he is 6'7" and weight is about 230.

I'm 6'6", 280 lbs with size 15 shoe.

I "tried on" over 20 different cobras and couldn't work the pedals in all but one. I had the bug bad though so even though I could only fit in one out of 20 I sat in I ordered one anyway.

I used Wilwood pedals which are adjustable. That added 2" of legroom. I also have 17" Kirkey Intermediates which I cut into low-backs and are being mounted to the floor. This add 2" more legroom and my eye site is below the top of the windshield. I also have a quick-release 14" wheel, which help as well. Last thing I did was widen the foot box using a pre-cut piece from an after market vendor. I can work the pedals in sneakers now, instead of having to use driving shoes or going barefoot.

HTH,

:3DSMILE:

redss454, sent you a PM.

Bob Evans, who used to post here quite often, is around 7' 1" or 7' 2" and 280 or so pounds. Although I think he sold it recently he owned a Unique 289 FIA for several years. He would have to fill you in on the details but after some mods he fit in it quite well. Probably better than his current Z06 'Vette, which has the driver's seat removed--he sits on foam padding on the floor.

I'm 5'-7" , 175 and fit just fine....:D ;)
