Hello, I’m currently in the process of find a new weekend cruiser since i’ve recently been gifted a large sum of money. I’ve been a fan of Bradley GTs for a while, but the concern of “being too tall” for one was always looming over. Is 6’1 too tall for a Bradley GT? Thanks.

Im 6'1" also. Get the car .... so fun to drive. there are remedies but involves serious work. lowering the floor pans , adding a 3" body lift and or moving the seats back and lowering them ... this requires moving the steering wheel back and relocating the shifter. I just got my car and have only moved the steering wheel { extension added} and bent the shifter back. I'm sending you a link to Big Bobs kit car build. He's 6'4" tall and built his Bradley to fit him by doing all of the above complete with pictures. 2 links these cars are a riot too drive. bobthagard.com/car_web/restoration.html scroll down the page until you find so you bought a Bradley now what ...I posted it yesterday along with Big Bobs kit car build look at both posts they will help in your decision. If you really need help with stuff Jeff Troy and God {because he builds custom cars for a living.} and hes really GOOD AT IT. Both know there stuff.

If you get the GT2 { 600 built looks like the Ford GT} they are hard to get parts for espically the windshield. the GT {6000 built} parts are easy and the windshield is from a 63 corvette.
Take your time locating one .. there are several in perfect condition at gate way custom cars on the web go from $8k to $10 k but if you really search one out $3k to $7k in really decent shape .Its a vw and there are parts every where cheap. its the bradley parts that are hard to get.
