Im 6ft 4.

My leg space is rather limited in my series 2a.

is there anyway to move the hand brake to the left a few inches?

Its a struggle to pull the hand brake on when im using the clutch.

Thanx.

Fit a series 3 lever, this will make it easer to pull.

I think it is a series 3 one, its easy enough to pull.
its just almost parallel with the clutch and needs shifting to the left.

They should teach people how to keep the footbrake down, give it some rev's and use the clutch... mind you the rev's are really only needed when towing... yella will tell you bout these things...

I shouldnt have said anything!
i knew you'd all take the ****!

I dont want to burn my clutch out.

Its a **** pulling the handbrake on when im sat in the car coz my leg is in the way.

Same as when i get in, big fecking handbrake taking up ALL the legroom.

I'll prob just bent the ****er outta the way!

Thanx!

Cut a hole in the Bulkhead for that Flintstones look, you can use your feet on the front wheel instead if a handbrake.
