I am looking at using a m105 or m101 bed for a project. I have the dimensions for a 105 (in my yard). But cant seem to find reliable measurements for a 101. I am looking for overall length, width, height. Also,most critical, measurement from front lip(forward most edge) to center of wheelwell opening, and inside to inside width between fenders. Thanks ahead. I am building a cucv clone out of a chevy k30 crew cab long bed 4wd, and would like to use a trailer bed.

I got everything but the height (forgot that when I went outside, I'll get it in a few) Overall length is 99.5" (edge of front lip to outside edge of tailgate). Overall width is 73.5" outside edge to outside edge measured at the bottom front of the trailer bed. The inside measurement from wheelwell to wheelwell is 45.5" and the measurment from front lip to the center of the wheel opening is 56.25"

Height is 20" without bows and cover and 51" with.
