If seller doesn't know the diff between a auto and the obvious clutch pedal and shifter in the floor manual trans..then I doubt they know much else..
The 292 was produced till 1988 from what I found... did find a article that stated in 1977 the 292 was the base engine for a c30....looking at the wheels I'd say it is a 30 series...looks like a parts truck from pics

I also doubt the jumper cable battery cables were standard...looks like they been there for a while
