well you cant really tell by the vin if its a short wide,but i can tell you that it came with a 305 and was made in St. Louis Mo. the only real way to tell is by looking at it. are you worried about it being a long bed cut down to a short ?

I dont think so. If you have the Service parts identification card...pictured below.
You can tell if it is a fleetside or stepside truck.
you can check all the codes here

the SPID label will also tell you the factory wheelbase of the truck... you can see the one pictured says 117.5", which is a shortbed standard cab.
