Having just completed the seat restoration - we have done a trial installation and discovered very little leg room between the original 2 spoke steering wheel and seat base.
I’m medium height and weight so it’s not like I’m trying to fit a large human in the drivers seat ....is this issue normal. Can just squeeze legs under steering wheel with drivers seat fully pushed back on rails.

Haha. I know . This project actually started in 2006. The restoration of a Pre As can be a bumpy road. Fortunately it’s now home for the family to admire and enjoy . And now it’s onto the next project.
