Not particularly tall, a gnats over 6', the car has bench type seats and although very nice I think it is a combination of the padded base and the upright seating position. Been following the seat thread so will probably go for the seats on there.

That is crazy high. I'm 5' 11" with short legs (long torso) so our position should be pretty close. Take the seat out and see what it looks like then.

Apparete from anything else the belts will not work correctly at that height of shoulder. I suggest you look at a foam bag seat or a set of Tillett 3.5 like mine.
