69-72 short bed, upper bed molding length needed

I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving.

I am cutting down a long bed, upper bed molding to fit a short bed.
If anyone is willing to take the time to mesure the total length or the length I need to make the cut. I would greatly appreciate anyone's time and effort for any help.

Thanks, Danny

IMHO cut a donor piece of anything the length you "think" it needs to be and audition that piece of wood or whatever you use as a donor piece

Hey thank you 72SB, that is a very good idea.
Will do a sacrificial piece of something first.
