I moved the seat forward until I could comfortably operate the clutch pedal, and then adjusted the steering wheel after that.

do we really need cupholders in a 400+ hp car? i never even allow a drink unless it has a screw top cuz you never know when i might mash the pedal. a sliding door over them or making them an option would be cool. my elbow doesnt ride in mine though but how bout the high door? i know the door really isnt the armrest but i tend to use it more than the armrest and with my seat low it seems high.

Hey ... If we want cup holders in a retro muscle car maybe we can bring back those 70's style door hanging cup holders!!!

That's pretty cool. I don't normally drink in the car, but I would be transporting drinks, and that looks very functional.

That sounds like a good idea too.

One thing I would change on the car for sure but not sure where you would put a cup holder. One that popped out of the dash maybe???? Lower pasanger side there is room.
