I need some dimensions please.

Hi folks,
I have managed to get hold of a 110 HCPU tub and need to cut it down so it will fit onto my new 130 that I’ve just bought.
So with this in mind, is it possible that somebody, who might have a 130 tub, would be able to accurately measure the external length of the top of the tub from front to back please and on both sides.
I hope that the image I’ve uploaded will give you an idea of the measurement I need which is between the yellow arrows. The difference between the two should give me a good idea of how much to chop out.
Hicap Phill gave me the idea of mounting it onto a wooden frame which will hopefully make things easier. Thanks in advance chaps and chapesses.

Measure from the rear cross member mounts to the front mounts. Turn body over and transfer the measurements.
Just check the centre line of the wheel hub to wheel arch.

I then cut the front. Panel off.you will find there are many skins.
Sorry I don’t have any dimensions.

Thanks for that.
When you’ve done it before, did you weld the front back on after chopping out the right amount?

Once you have looked at the center line on the wheel arch this will tell if you remove the front or back panels.
On mine I had to remove the front.

I used pop rivets(wanted a quick job) it has been the same for 20+years

Here’s mine.

Thanks for that Phil, most helpful.
As a small aside, is yours registered as a light commercial/van (N1) or a car.
