So, I was curious for all those people who seem to try and cram themselves into their older muscle cars, how did you go about mounting your seats to give yourself the most room possible in comfort, of course being absent minded that a back seat exist. If it is a custom fabricated bracket, then the answer bracket will do, but if it is something cooler, possibly safer and more convenient then post your solutions here!!!, Because Me, at a leggy 6'7 decided that if I was going to invest all this money in this car, I am damn sure going to be comfortable in it!!!! Screw the back seat

You could cut off your feet.

If it's a first gen F-body, they sell extended tracks that give an extra couple inches.

hahahahaha, cut off your feet, lol thats what I used to get my first gen originally. Ok, well I probably should have put this in there but, I have custom seats(ariza racing). When I had the original seats in there I had the seat tracks, but now that I have new ones I kinda need a different solution

Yes, the seat track extensions. You can make your own.

Custom seat mounts. Lowered about 3 inches (as much as possible. I forget exactly how much) and moved 3 inches back. I now have enough room to drive with a helmet. You might also need to move the steering wheel a bit closer to you as well.
