    Some people take the belt off the SC and drive it like that on long trips. I had to take mine off on my 99 and drove it with the belt for 3 days! Im pretty sure you will be fine.

    Yeah, hell. Buy the car, pull the belt, get it home. It's NOT going to hurt anything, but Check Engine might <Should> pop on. If anything, you can get a Junkyard SC for it, and resell the car for a profit.

    You might see if you can pull the belt and test drive it be fore buying, paying attention to the Transmission. If they never changed the SC oil, I doubt they did much for trans fluid and filter maintenance.. and 120-130k miles is where these trannys will die with no service. Look for slippage in first gear at half throttle, and make sure it is actually has 4th gear. If so, you can get a trans from Tripleedge for 1500-1600...
    Dude! Full Service Manuals! 2004-'08 User manuals, full docs wiring diagrams trouble codes... go look.
