I think those dimensions are avaialable on speedwaymotors.com
Keep in mind,some of the aftermarket bodies are longer than stock.

After I get moved I am going to start on my '24 T. I am taking a TT cab and building it t bucket style. What I am trying to find our is if the cab will fit on the standard 103" wheelbase chassis or if I need a longer one. I plan to use a Buick 455 and 400 tranny (out of same car), a quickchange if my boss will sell it to me affordibly and a 6" tube axle with a spring behind setup. and corvair steering.

just a guess, but it will probably fit, If your tall, or dont want to chop the firewall, Id add 3-4" through the middle of the chassis (that is if you plan to build it yourself...)

I know someone out there has a t bucket that can give me a basic measurement. Thanks
My glass body is 52" firewall to back of tub.

what size chassis are you using. Thanks for the info.

Wheelbase is 101" on a home made chassis - Spring over in front and the body is notched for the kickup in the rear. (The kickup rails barely intrude - maybe 2")
go to Total performances site, they can help you there or to www.nationaltbucketalliance.com.That (http://www.nationaltbucketalliance.com.That) site is just bucket heads who can give dimensions of the top of there heads'
