Do I modify the shelf tray by a couple of inches and then try to figure out how to move the seat riser back or somehow modify the seat riser?? Or, do I try to modify the seat cushion and seat back to gain the extra room?? Any ideas much appreciated.
PS: This is the coupe that my Grandfather gave to me in 1954 when I was 16. I want to continue the tradition by giving it to my oldest Grandson.

Put a brick on his head (lol) I'am 6'3" and once I get in a coupe ( I've only driven 2) I don't have any problems driving short times only. Make sure your grandson helps with the modification .
Handing down your car is a great tradition !
