Electra Tall frame dimensions?

Anybody own an Electra Cruiser 1 or a 7d with the Tall frame ? .
I need the top tube measurement from the center of the steering tube to the center of the seat post .
also the measurement of the seat post tube from the frame to the top of the seat tube ..
The stand over would be helpful also . From the ground to the top of the top tube approx. 10” in front of the seat post .
Im interested in comparing the Tall frame to my Electra Fat Tire 7d Lux . Thanks .

I found this in a review of a C1 Tall frame .
The Electra Men's Beach Cruiser 1 (Tall Frame) is about 4" longer than the standard frame in length, and about 1-1/2" taller in height. The crank placement has been move forward about 3"

This is what I’m hoping. With my short legs and long torso and arms , the longer wheelbase should be what I need to actually fit my body style .
The bike has been ordered . They said maybe by the end of the week , it’d be here and they’ll put it together for me .
And they said if it doesn’t work out , they’ll allow me to exchange it for another .
