How big a person can you put in a Lincoln K rumble seat?

The answer: At least 6' 4", 330 lbs. But getting in and out is another story /emoticons/default_wink.png" srcset="/emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" width="20" loading="lazy"> My wife said I'd fit; I said "no way." But this proves her right.

Cecil, can you reach the steering wheel from there?

Alsancle --That's the last time I'm getting in that thing. I'm *directly* behind the wheel from now on!

That's great. I wish my coupe had a rumble seat, but it has a full length deck lid instead. Probably more practical for touring however.

K8096 - Yeah, it's not very practical and the steps break up the lines some, but it's still a pretty interesting feature since it was such an anachronism by that time.

Maybe you should see if your wife would like to join you in the rumble seat.

Hey K8096, thanks for the musical score, but where exactly do you expect my wife to sit (see above pics)?

Jason, I love the shot of the Caddy in the corner. You need to buff that thing out and do the engine.

AJ, That's the black one we drive all the time. You're thinking of the other one (maroon) that needs everything.

Cecil you look like your wearing that car. Note to self, Cecil would be a handy guy to have around in a sketchy bar...
