The club cabs can be identified by the frame. All the frames have the drop down that covers the passenger compartment. Standards are short, clubs are 16 inches longer and earlier crews are another 16 inches longer. If the frame rail kicks up after the cab then it wasn't a club cab.

I bet it comes up a a reg cab, if it is a '91.0
Club cabs didn't make a come back till '92 and even then , I bet very few Cab and chassis trucks where ordered with the club cab option in '92 and '93.

Cab & chassis were a unique wheelbase on a std cab, based on 5' or 7' from the back of the cab to the axle. A clubcab (or any pickup) with a 'bed delete' option, didn't get a special wheelbase.

I just measured mine... from the back of the fwd cab mount to the beginning of the upswing on the frame:
- std cab = 25"
- club cab = 27"
- crew cab = 59"

​​​​​​​Are your standard and club cabs pickups or c&c. I'm just going off of memory as I don't have a standard cab truck to measure.

- std cab = 25" (131" pickup, '89-90; and 135" C&C, '77)
- club cab = 27" (149" pickup, '93)
The rear floor in the club cab is at a higher level than the regular footwell area. I bet you could swap a club cab onto a std cab frame without too much trouble.

Make sure and resize the pics before you upload them. I size my to 1024 X 768 pixels. If they are too large, it causes the whole page to enlarge, for lack of a better word, and you then have to scroll right and left to see it all. There is a list of acceptable formats in the manage attachments section. I don't use the app, but someone mentioned the other day the he could not upload pics ...Mark
