Question

don't have my own bus to measure, and it's not very accurate trying to figure out a 'to scale' measurement from a photo, but what is the height difference from where the roof meets the side wall to the highest point in the roof?

Wall height is 61-62" ceiling is 78", 16-17" roof height.

On a low roof, add 3 " to a high roof.

Sled-I just put a tape on mine from the inside stern...I got 19.25" to the center of the rivets that connect the roof to the wall. We have a high roof Thomas.
