In looking through the FAQ section I didn't find any wheelbase info but Bob
may be interested. From 1987-1996 the available wheelbases were:
Reg Cab, Short bed = 112"
Reg Cab, Long bed = 124"
Club Cab, Short Bed = 131"
Bed lengths were listed there... 6.5' and 8'.
Bob, you might suggest to the owner/seller of the Dak to acquire and learn
to use a tape measure. There's a good bit of difference between 6.5' and
8' so even if he has trouble using it accurately inside the bed, *you*
should still be able to determine which size it is.
