Such an amazing amount of work, and great job sharing it with the BB.

As far as I'm concerned, this car was in the grave, and you have brought it back to life.

Perhaps you can build a bit of a support plinth for the bolt-in roll cage, i.e. added sheet metal to support the bolt-in cage, just like we'd do with a welded-in cage. Bolting it to the thin sheet metal is not the most ideal.

I'd look around for a modern track oriented seat that is made to look period in a '60's car. I've seen a few and think it'd make a very comfortable road seat, yet still hold you in on the curves. 5 or 6 point harness, please, or a good 3-way across the shoulder belt.
