Anyone move drivers bucket seat back?

I'm 5'5". Could not understand why even with the bench seat in my Dart all the way forward and a pad behind my back I still could hardly reach the peddles.

Turned out my moms 6'9" boyfriend who the car was handed down from had put blocks under the front seat tracks to give more head and leg room.

Anyway I think that worked pretty well for him. Not so much for me though. Lol
