[6pack] Triumph for tall drivers

I am trying to promote my love of Triumphs to my son.  He is 11 yrs old and
having gone on several ralleys and car shows this year, he is excited.  The
problem is he is already 5' 10" tall.  My guess is that he will wind up to
be somewhere in the 6' 8" to 6' 10" range (just like his uncles).

I am 6 ft and almost max out my TR6.  I have a roll bar that I can remove
but it will only give a couple more inches of leg room.  So I know the TR6
is not a possibility.  Is there any other Triumphs that have the capability
for taller drivers?

I'm hoping that perhaps a Stag or ?? would have more room, that I could get
one and we could have a father and son project in restoring it for him to
drive.
