There's a lot more 73-87 trucks around than 67-72. In my neck of the woods, they're constantly on marketplace, and frequently on the road. It's difficult to drive five miles without passing one or two squarebody's on the road or in someone's driveway.

A sale platform(like this one) can shift in focus to something it wasn't intended. For example, if someone wants to sell a square, they look through this classifieds section, and don't see any squares, so they sell it elsewhere. Likewise, a buyer doesn't see any squares on these classifieds, so he looks somewhere else as well. It's a self-perpetuating cycle that's difficult to break. There's no square buyers on this platform because there's no square sellers. And vice-versa.
