  • Raised body Roadster ?

    Other than Robert from Cumbria has anyone else ever raised the A posts so windscreen / dash higher and therefore a more upright seating position ?
    Adding a folded blanket on the seat has proven this suits me better than normal position so is the route I'm considering. From what I read Robert from Cumbria added 6 inches but I'm looking more like 3-4". Plan would be make new lower body sides for bonnet and heighten grill surround. Not 100% sure what to do with back so it might be a case of awaiting until front aspect sorted before deciding. AFAIK two options - raise whole rear tub or cut in in half and add material in the middle. The reason for this would be so original hood would fit without modification. Added bonus is steering wheel angle could be less upright and then possible to have deeper dash so instruments could be infront of driver.

    Hi Paul

    Unfortunately I don't know anyone else who has done this.

    Ours cars are what we want them to be, if it suites and you have the ability, go for it.
