Hi,
I have finally started work on my 68 GT6.  I have started removing items 
from the wngine in prepartion for pulling and rebuilding the engine.  I 
was surprised at restricted the opening of bonnet on the GT6 is.  On my 
80 Spitfire (and 70 GT6+ that I had started working on before giving it 
away )  the bonnet would open enough that I culd sit on the fron tire 
and work on the engine.  Not so with the Mk 1.
I assume it is due to the different bonnet and hinge locations, but I 
want to check is it normal? Do I have a bent hood prop or  something 
more sinister.
