Re: best waders??

Correction: "I could not operate the clutch without fouling the
accelerator.." should have read "I could not operate the clutch without
fouling the brake.."  I also could not operate the accelerator without
fouling the brake.  Other things I remember about the Seven was that the
seat was about 50% too narrow and the car did not have a heater.
