My New 70 442 is Smaller than my First one
Observation - My newly acquired 70 442 seems much smaller behind the wheel than the one I had 30 years ago. Wonder if it's the car or maybe I'm bigger than I used to be...
It amazes me, I used to get in and put of that car 50 times a day and never thought anything of it. It's work now!

Heh heh... I think it is us being bigger!
I remember sitting on the floor with legs 'Indian style' in the back of my moms old Pinto when I was 7 or 8. Now it feels a bit cramped in the front with the seat all the way back.
Now on the other hand, make sure the seat CAN go all the way back. In my '72, the bench seat is slightly bent which keeps it from going all the way back - it hangs on the tranny tunnel. Previous owner musta been a big dude...
