1949 bed to frame mounting holes

I'm going to get a mar-k bed in December but as of now I have no bed. I want to install no limit tank today with side fill and box in some areas for rear suspension mock up. I don't want to box frame in areas where the bed bolts to it. So I could use a little help now to save time later:

Can someone give me measurements so I can locate the needed holes? Thank you!

The holes are there, I'm on the road and maybe someone can post a photo with the holes marked.

Or they can save this, mark the holes and repost it below.

Can someone tell me if my notch for fuel filler removed a mounting hole for bed?

Scroll down this page a bit. I think you are good as the cross sill goes across the frame where the hole to the right of the neck and notch are if the photo partway down the page in this link is right. http://talk.classicparts.com/threads...ed-wood.12180/
