I'm guessin' Burb. If you still have access to the truck, measure the wheel base or crawl under the truck and see if there are any signs of frame mods.
Errr, maybe bad advice .... that might be a good way to get your butt kicked!
Cool ride. Someone here had something similar they were selling. Crew cab with short box. It was a modfied crew cab frame, the bed wasn't cut shorter like this one is.

could be a reg cab long bed truck like one of the members here did think it was mtmike?
no the trucks not around anymore, I do remember that it had a good sized body lift (home made),it could have been required to make it fit.

I found a pic of mtmikes rig, & its wheel base is shorter, the axle is almost in line with the back of the cab.
So does all this info narrow it down to a Burb frame for sure?

maybe he moved it back some? eather way i dont think its possible to tell from a pic, without some measurements.
the frame was never cut or chopped, & the spring mounts were all in stock position.

From what we can see in the pics, it's a burban frame. I've got a pic of a four door cab on a burb frame, with a shortened bed. I will email the pic if someone wants to post it.

I assume you're asking me; I know nothing, I just stole the pic off Pirate cause I want to do the same thing.

That looks like a LWB or a Suburban length
Here's mine with a SWB frame running 52" front springs and reversed 56" rear springs (~123") and some non-final trimming into the cab corner...
