Actually, based on this info. I think it may be a size too small for you. I am 5'4" with a 30.5" cycling inseam, and the 19" frame fits me much better than the 17.5" frame (I own one of each). If your cycling inseam is really 29" though, the 17.5" one may be fine. Is 29" your pants inseam or cycling inseam. Cycling inseam is measured in bare feet, but pressing a book or something into your crotch and then marking on a wall the distance from your pubic bone to the ground.
You said its only an hour drive. Can you make an appt. to test ride say an hour before the auction closes, and then place your bid either on the sellers computer or your cell phone if you are happy with the ft?
p.s. if your cycling inseam is really 29" then this bike should be a good fit, as I have minimum clearnance on my 19" frame with a 30.5" inseam. 29" just seems small for your height.
