Yeah, that's what I was thinking, the seat and the steering column mounting need to come later when I am closer to driving it.

I have decided I will be splitting the column and changing the angle at the dash dropping it down some. The seat has my had spinning every time I think about it. I need to put it aside and get other things done. I may be removing the stock mounting from the floor. Right now, sitting in there with just a very thin foam on a piece of plywood I am looking at the top of the windshield and I'm only 5'8''.

We will see.
