Attn. aeronca65t Steering column modification

On the racing forum you said "In my car, when it was a street car, I shortened the steering column and added a smaller diameter wheel. I also used a "thinner" seat. This made the car easier to get in and out of. "
Can you give us any info on how you did this and the pros and cons.
Did you remove the plastic column cover&such and how was the clearance from the wheel to dash afterward?
What diameter wheel are you using?
Thank you
Tim
