Bob,
        It is not difficult to reposition the seat rails to allow further
travel of the seat to the front.  I think we wrote this up a few years ago
for MGB Driver, though it may have been for the Chicagoland MG Club
Driveline.  I will look for the file at home tonight, or by then Kim Tonry
will have probably responded with the exact citation from the Driver.  
        A correctly positioned seat will make driving even more fun for her.
Bs are the perfect size car for us short people.  We can even parallel park
them!
