Guys,

Jupiter C also had extended tanks, just not as extended as the Redstone version. See the attached from the NASA website. Or check Peter Alway's Rockets of the World and 14 U.S. Army Missiles of the Cold War.

13.75" for the missile, 17" for Jupiter C and Merc at 19.67" on a 2" diameter body (1/35 scale). Note that if your Jupiter C cone includes a section of cylinder you need to subtract that length from the 17".
