I have a set of FloFit seats that I had in a BMW that I have been
thinking about putting in the Pantera. After removing the original
seat if I put the seat flat on the floor (no adjustment) I'm afraid
I'll be sitting too high. Putting the seat far enough back so my
legs would fit under the steering wheel had the back against the
firewall. Moving the seat forward enough to get a comfortable amount
of angle on the back and the steering wheel was too low... :^(
If I tried to use the tracks for adjustment it would add around 1"
to the hight of the seat. I may ask around and see about having some
of the cushion in the seat bottom removed. Maybe it would be worth while
to check in to lowering the floor.

For what it's worth I'm 5'10" and wear pants with a 34" inseam. My current
driver seat has *NO* padding left at all......
