Does anyone make a hood (bonnet) for the Revell Land Rover that has the spare tire mount? I have no idea why they put it on the roof, first the safari roof is only to provide shade thus acting like insulation and second how would you get it down.

At the moment, you can get only get one in the recently re-issued Italeri Fire Engine Land Rover kit. But I'm sure it won't be long before some wily caster takes one as a starting point and begins selling replacement Land Rover bonnets for the Revell kit with the spare wheel mounting in the (much more) usual place. Mind you, as discussed here previously, even there you'd probably want to take it off before sticking your head in the engine bay to do a little work...

best,

Very true, while i usually did not take mine off when I worked under the hood of my series IIA I did pay very close attention to where the hood support was.
