[Spridgets] Seats

[Bud Osbourne]

Kirk,
That heel board is a structural member.  Also, on the 1/4 elliptic cars, the 
upper control arm mount would be in the way, I think, if you were to attempt 
to cobble up some way of moving that bulkhead back out of your way.  I'm 
sure you could contrive a way to do it, but you'd have to do some clever 
engineering to make the rear suspension work around it.
