I just measured the space in my 1970 yesterday in preparation to build a new sub box so your in luck. I have my in cab gas tank removed and with my seat in the furthest rear position, it measures 8-1/2" to the rear of the cab (this measurement it taken just above the raised up portion of the floor where the old tank used to sit) and 4" to the rear of the cab at a point 18" up from the bottom (measuring from the raised up portion of the floor where the old tank used to sit)
