awning length?

Good morning everywhere....Our awning was ripped out by a wind storm awhile back. I removed it and saved the welp cord so I know the width. Does anyone know the exact length fully extended. It is not a zip-dee. We are going to get an estimate from an upholsterer to see if he can do the replacement. But does anyone know?

Is it a Carefree awning? Here's a scan of that manual for ID purposes.

I recall another brand of awning being used in that period but can't put my finger on it.

I have pictures of it as is right now...don't know beans yet about how to post pictures...I use picasa...have not been explained about how to 'go advanced'. There is no name on the fixture (you would think there would be)...but it is a curved armed structure, and where the arms hold the roller, it's kind of....sort of looks like....uh....- look at the back of your hand and fold your fingers in...looks like that. I am looking at your instruction pictures too...still not sure.
