Interesting 1/2 Ton Dodge Dually Crew Cab on EPay

It looks good until you check the serial number which comes back as a 1/2T 150 series: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Dodge-Ra ... dZViewItem
I sent the seller an inquiry and got this reply - The VIN number was changed by a previous owner who "restored" it from salvage.

I guess that's why it has a "clean" title. What am I missing here?

My guess is somebody wanted to pay cheaper inshurance so they switched the vin. There is no such thing as a 1/2 ton crew cab, so the vin has to have been switched on the cab if it is right. That could pose a legal issue in the future. :roll:
