Frank, I'm going to say those wheels are 20's, at least.

That makes the roof of the car approx 38" tall, or just over three feet... You don't fit. Then again, the seating arrangement probably has the driver about as close to laying down as you can comfortably get and still see over the wheel, because that's the "sport" arrangement, it seems. (I prefer to sit just slightly lower than straight up and down... about two "clicks" of most seats.)

Of course, the car was probably designed around a 5'8" frame.
