Exclamation Headroom, how much at the walls?

So the bus I am looking at (remotely - can't physically get to it yet) has 78" of headroom, what would the height be at the side walls? 6" lower? 3"? Its a 2001 Thomas MVP-ER

Lemme go measure for ya ....

It's raining out, but I'm back ...

It is 60" from the OEM plywood to the top of the window frame, and the rib starts to curve 3" above that.

Hope that helps.

Would you by chance be willing to take another measurement for me? On the exterior, from the bottom of the window to the rub rail thats at the top of the wheel height? (not sure if the amount of rub rails varies on these or if they only came with this one) -- THANKS IN ADVANCE!
