When I built my Cobra I set the driver's seat up so that as it moves forward it also raises. This way both I (6'4") and my wife (5'2") can drive the Cobra.
She's driven the Cobra a handful of times but complains that, although the car is a blast to drive, the clutch and accelerator pedals are much too stiff and the steering is heavy at slow speeds.
Remember those "faults" as you set up the return springs on your accelerator pedals and choose wheels and tires for the front of the car.
