Need bumper to bumper length of '72 SWB ASAP! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm in the process of building a house...the electrician starts tomorrow and needs to know where I want my outlets placed in the garage. Well, before I can decide where I want the outlets, I need to decide which wall would be best to place a large workbench. I'd like to place it on the back wall, but I'm afraid there won't be room for my truck if I do and I can't measure my truck because it's 800 miles away in storage!

Can someone please measure their swb truck from bumper to bumper please? (fingers crossed that it's not longer than 17' !!!)

About 15' 8".
So say 16 feet.

Make sure you leave room to walk around it. My house garage is 30' wide and 28' deep.
I wish it was bigger!

16' long, wheeew, It'll be tight but I'll make it work.

28' deep? Man, I'm jealous. Mine's 30' wide, but only 21' deep.

Add a few more feet. Nows the time to do it.
I wanted to be able to park a crew cab longbed inside my garage.
