thats a good one but its not the one i was using as that includes any type of truck, not just chevy.

anyone have some other searches they use?

I just punch in 67-72 Chevy Truck and thats all I get. I get all parts that pertain to these trucks. Hope that helps

problem with that search is that youll be missing out on a lot of auctions.

if there was an auction with chevrolet in the title, or pick up, or 1968 then your search on "67-72 chevy trucks" wouldnt pick them up.

the first search john posted is good, ill have to change it a bid so it only searches for chevy, chevrolet and gmc

i agree with 70cst punch in 67-72chevy truck and 67-72chevrolet truck and 67-72 gmc truck and you'll pretty well have it all

Dropt72Shortbed · 04-13-2003, 08:05 PM

allright i got it down now

if you want a very thorough search copy paste this into your ebay search, then bookmark the search for future reference.

(67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970, 1971, 1972) (truck, blazer, pickup, p/u) (chevy, chevrolet, gmc)

typing in 67-72 doesnt cut it as youll miss out on any auctions titled 1968, 1969 etc....

I have my own special link for getting those odd ebay items. (Mail me 10 bucks and I'll share it with you! :-) )

It DOES pay to search outside of the 67-72 criteria. There is stuff there and you don't have to fight as many people for it.

dropt72shortbed has what I use and it gives me more than cdowns link. Which is the old way I use to search ebay.

Those are just about the same parameters I use, works great!
