Having an up and over garage door, it reduces the height of the entrance.
So can anybody tell me the height from road to top of cab please?
My thinking is I could renovate the pick up inside and later buy a hard top.
Thanks in advance

My S3 running on 7.50X16s and standard leaf springs is 6'2" to the top of the truck cab and 6'4" to the top of the hood sticks.

That's the answer I was looking for. thanks a million.
Unfortunately the pickup in the above link sold this evening.
The search continues!

One of the land rover mags gives the heights of all models in the spec details at the back of the mag. Not sure which one I read it in. I bought my series 3 88" and it goes in a standard door on 205/80 tyres. A 90 on coils will not go in.
