My two cents worth. I am 5'10" and I have never had a back ache as bad as when
I was working on the midget. The bumper is at my knees. The fenders are at
the middle of my thighs. The top is at the middle of my chest. When I
replaced the top this summer (4 hours on a Saturday in July) my back was stiff
for about 5 days.
Here is the kicker . . . my wife does not see the same problem. She is 5"0".
I once watched her "jump" literally into the car during a heavy rainstorm
WITHOUT DUCKING HER HEAD. I was amazed. She just disappeared into the
blackness of the cockpit. I proceeded to get drenched.
All in all, I got no complaints.
Sunny day . . . good day for a drive
