- I see that Moss is now offering a dead pedal for the MGB. I have pondered this possibility for years, off and on. It is certainly needed, but the thing that always stopped me was, how would you reach

- Are you saying you are old AND short? I had think think for a minute about why you would want a dead pedal. At 6'3" I have always loved the inside of my B and the fact that it doesn't fit like my Mia

- Your fiendly Datsun dealer to the rescue. I have in my 72 240Z a passenger side foot rest which bolts to the floor. It is hinged to swing towards the seat so that longer legged passengers can use the

- I guess I have to explain myself. No, I'm not particularly old, and I'm 6'1". Because I have long legs, I keep the seat pushed back far enough that my left foot does not reach the firewall. This lea

- Yeah, I mentioned it because my co-driver on the California Melee was having this issue (I was afraid he was going to tear off the windshield top frame). It helped when I told him to slide his seat f

- Hmm. That's how I discovered seat belts. I was in the right hand seat of my parents 65 Galaxie 500 after making a left turn too quickly. It's really tricky trying to drag yourself back to the steerin
