There is a stiffener inside the tub behind the door (spot welded in my county donor tub) - does the front rivet line of the fuel surround pick up the stiffener?

I can take pictures tomorrow if you like, just need to remember.

On mine the top middle rivet is 235 mm from the front edge of the tub. I had measurements from someone back when I built it.

Badco would be better taking a measure as it was a factory setup.

I wouldn't use the inside stiffener as a guide. These cars are handmade and can have variations from one vehicle to the next.
