Good Deal on this CTD? help!

Hey guys

Found a 01.5 2500 4x4 white slt 3.55 ho 6spd. It is perfect other than behind the pass. rear tire there is a good size dent where it looks like someone smacked a pole. Looks like its 3/8 inch deep and pretty low down so not too bad. However, it has a #55 on the passenger side of block... Is that a good block or a bad one? any info will help. Couldnt find much searching thru posts. also, its got a spray in liner and brake controller, other than that it is stock. called DC to check on prior warrenty work. Truck was sold on 7/7/2001 at mayes county dodge in pryor, Oklahoma. Its only warrenty work was done by the same dealer and they replaced the clutch master cylinder at 32K. The selling dealer is also in the same town as it was taken in as a trade in. DC also told me its got the heavy duty package which i think means the 241HD trans case??? Its got 63k miles and the dealer wants 19,900 for it with a free 6 month powertrain warrenty, and the price can be worked down to 19,000 or 19.5 i think..

is that a good deal or do any of you think there is a different reason other than the dent that needs fixing that this truck is low in price?
