To be honest, until I saw an over-head photo, I drove for years not realizing it wasn’t. And yes, it’s a thing with all sports cars earlier than the 80’s that they have oddball quirks (nutty footwells, crooked steering wheels up/down/left/right, bad seats, etc.)
The easiest option would be canting the seat-rails a smidge…and that’s not easy either. |

One of my favorite quirks is the way that British sports cars often had a narrow, off angle footwell such that the drivers feet were slowly roasted to medium well done next to the transmission tunnel. That is one of the reasons you can buy fireproof ballerina driver’s shoes at outrageous prices. |
