I've seen a lot of coupes with adjustable seats. My 31 de Luxe coupe has one and I believe it to be original to the car. A friend has a 30 coupe and the seat in that adjusted also, also looked to be stock. With the package rack gone you may be able to gain about 4 inched. My problem with the 31 roadsters is that the windscrean is so short I have to hunch down to see out. I'm 6 feet tall but with long body, short legs. I sit 6"6". I like the 31 coupe once inside, but the entry and exit is a show in itself. Try some of those Poco guys cars, I know they are wonderful folks and will let you try them on for size. Welcome to the hobby.
