My plan calls for a table top of 90" x 42" which in itself is plenty
but the legs of the base were originally 58" apart which doesn't leave
enough room for three chairs between them.

A trestle table doesn't necessarily need room between the "base" for chairs
if the side overhang is sufficient. If you don't have access to a well
designed trestle table, take steps to find one you can sit at.
