the steering wheel seems very high on the avon , has any body fitted a different column or adjustable column when using the sierra pedal box. many thanks MJA.

I've fitted a Sierra adjustable column. It gives you a 2 inch drop at the point of fixing.HtH

The AVON steering wheel does seem a little higher than other SE7EN's, in reality though this is probably an optical illusion as the scuttle is so shallow?

I am six foot 2 inches tall and had to mount the wheel in it's uppermost possition to allow my feet to get on the pedals!

'martthefridgeman', have you joined SATOC yet? I have a C20XE Powered AVON built this year and for my sins run SATOC, would be great to see a new face???

What about some pictures?

Cheers!

Looks good, as do all of them until you try and fit the bodywork - good luck with that.

Pat...

Sorry, something constructive as well:

The steering wheel does look about right and as Andrew said, the scuttle is a lot lower than others.

Should look right once you get the bodywork on.

Pat...

Looking good. would like to see more piccies in your archive....

as far as the wheel goes - when you fit a 10" mountney wheel it looks a lot better....

I have got a fair few pictures to go on the archive but i have got to resize them all as they are large files (2megs +). i hope to have some on soon. mja

DaveFJ - how come your internal panels are black?

Thanks,

Pat...

just fancied being contrary. everybody else has a black chasis and bare ally panels....

How did you make them black?

Pat...

just primer/paint... and chassis is silver POR15 (although it is not UV resistant and has now gone an intersting golden colour...)
