As the title says I'm looking to see a roadster in Miami or southern FL somewhere. I'm going to be getting a kit soon but wanted to verify that someone 6' and 6'4" will fit. I don't want to get the kit and find out that we won't fit properly.

If you want to come to Tampa you're welcome to look at mine and take a ride.

You'll fit, not to worry. There also a few trick to make them more comfortable for the big guys....

Thanks. I saw this you tube vid of a guy crammed in one but he didn't say what kit to show how his kit was better. I've really been researching these different kits and so far FF has given me nothing but good things.

I've looked at

Kirkham (awesome but out of my budget plus too complete)
ERA (awesome but too complete for me)
FF (awesome)
Pacific Roadster (I don't like seeing parts like drum brakes as standard so I wondered what else would be too basic for me that I didn't notice)
Superperformance (same as ERA)
Shelby America (same as Kirkham)

The best fit for myself so far has been FF. I've already downloaded both manuals and have went through them pretty thoroughly. The best part for me was that my girlfriend was the one that suggested that we get one.

Here's a "tall guy graduation" post over at the other forum.

I am the current owner of the car, but it's up here in North Carolina now. He shows some tips in this thread and has some others on that site ( click his name on the left side of the post and click "find more posts by" and you'll see some of his other tall-guy fits threads.
