Thoughts on this eBay truck?

[davepl]

I've been considering this unit because its a close match for a truck my family used to own (though its much nicer and more highly optioned). But as always, before I buy, I turn to the experts (that's you!):

The VIN listed doesn't decode correctly for me (TCE242S501323), even if you drop the T up front. He's going to send me a photo of the glovebox door option list, and says its equipped as it was built.

Please let me know what you think. I have a couple of questions as well:

- Was the Sierra Grande ever made as a shotbox or 4x4?
- Could a Sierra Grande 2500 ever have a wood bed?

Thanks!
Dave
