No, the car's not lowered. I flirt with the idea from time to time, but there are too many issues that I personally don't like, especially the possibility of dragging. The Hooker 2055 y-pipe drops about an inch below the k member as is.
The driver's seat is a Lear/Seigler Conteur, found in some early 80's Camaros. It has thigh, seat, seat back, and lumbar adjustments. It also sits on a six-way electric track.
