Bonnet Lid Service Position

Does anyone know, without going out in the rain, how much over roof height does it stick up??

I have just moved into new house and I am trying to work out if I will have height clearance to put it in service position in garage.

NB., No rush garage currently full of boxes etc etc., but keen to know for future jobs.

A picture would be good if anyone has one.

Mike, you could measure the bonnet length and then use that figure [plus a few inches] to get a vertical height. ... - .- -.

Rolling with laughter I’m not wooden...
Just a very happy old man now I know I can work away under the bonnet unrestricted within the warmth and comfort of my new garage, something I couldn’t do in my old house., plus I can walk all around it to polish it to my hearts content.

It was my first “must have” when choosing our new home.
In 30+ years of f.f. Ownership I have always garaged it overnight when at home and I am determined to keep B.B. prestine so it will look good till the end....
