Default Rear tub badge location?

Can someone grab a tap measure and get me a couple of measurements for the rear tub badge location? See pic... if you can measure from edge of taillight Galvanized strip to nearest rivet hole (red), then from bottom edge of the belt line Galvanized strip to same rivet hole (purple), that will help me locate the badge.

Thank you! I am pretty sure the oval badge mounts with the same hole location you've provided as the one I posted (the oval with lower garnish), so this is perfect.

Comparing mine to your pic they appear to be in the same location. Just curious how you ended up without mounting holes.

It's one of the great mysteries of the universe . You'll recall a previous post where you provided me hole locations for the bumper pull as well. I'm sure I'll identify more missing holes in the future.

Oh that was you too. 🤭 let me know of you need any more measurements. Hopefully you don’t have more missing holes, lol.

Installed. I decided to make it as difficult as possible by not drilling holes (I'll gladly cut up just about anything, but it just didn't seem right in this case... even though I installed PEM nuts on the other side to mount a license plate frame). So... I countersunk the back side of the holes on the badge, then riveted it to nothing, then filled the back around the rivets and holes with my favorite-- JB Weld, then filed them flat, then attached to the truck tub with 3M VHB tape. Voila...

Thank you. The measurements worked perfect to find the "missing" holes on my '58 Series 2 as well.
