Re: Leg room 29 CCPU
Being 6' 4", I have an even harder time fitting in model A's in general. Open cars and pickups are the tightest. People back in the day must have been quite a bit smaller than now-a-days. The only thing I can think of is to have Snyder's make a custom seat back that is about 2" thinner. This will help a little, but I am sure the cab will still be a tight fit for a large or tall person. I did this (had Snyder's make a thinner seatback spring) for my 28 special coupe along with moving the bottom seat brackets back about 1 1/2" and moving the wood package tray behind the front tray flange. This gave me about 3 1/2" more leg room, but still wasn't as much as I need. Snyder's charged $25 more than the standard set of seatback spring they sell for the 2" thinner springs. I already bought a 2" thinner seatback set of springs for my 29 CCPU I will use when I get to the upholstery.
