Big guys

[jdogdude78]

I just purchased the Type 65 Coupe kit

I am 6 feet 1.5 inches, but range from 230 - 245 (COVID weight :))

I ordered the low back aluminum seats, but may put in some racing seats later on.

Any tips or ideas on a build for a bigger guy??

You will fit fine, just need to develop a graceful technique for getting in and out.

Cool

This makes me feel better guys
Thank you!

I agree with Gordon, when I had my coupe still I was 6'1" 300+, I did have the Kirkey high backs
and I just opened them up and flared them slightly and was fine. You will be also.
in and out is the trick, Rob Burton used to say it is like seeing a baby whale being born.
