I want a certain make and model within a range of years, and I get

I also want the car to be of a certain color but even though I know
there are two cars listed now of that color adding the color just gave
little trim accessories. Is there any way to search on cars of a
particular color if the seller didn't mention color in the title, which
they seem never to do?


(even though another search word is convertible, which I thought would
limit the search to complete cars, there are 1000's of parts that fit
convertibles, so it didn't help.)



Try this link:
http://www.ebay.com/sch/Cars-Trucks/6001/i.html

That sure seems to work. I wonder what sch means.

And what does 6001 mean?

But it looks like you've got the winning ticket.

But how did you find this?. Cars and Trucks is not one of the
categories when you're in regular ebay. Ebay Motors is, but if you see
my answer to Clare, that doesn't work.


And what else is strange is... I have, in Firefox, ebay as one of 17
possible search engines, and that's how I started out several days ago.
It defaulted to All categories so I switched to Ebay motors. And
that's when I got all the parts etc.

So just now after I tried the link above I put Lebaron** in the Firefox
search field, and it brought up the same sort of page, only whole cars
(only 3 of them.) It put Lebaron in the category box to the right
of the search box.

So I tried a word that was not the model of a car. I put that in the
Firefox search box. And ebay put it in the ebay search box. and put All
Categories in the category box. My model is both a model of a car
and it's used elswhere a lot too, maybe that's it, of maybe I ruined it
by looking putting the model in the search field after an ebay page was
showing, or by putting in the year or color I wanted.

BTW, I asked on the Ebay motors board almost 3 hours ago and havent'
gotten one answer yet, but I've gotten 3 here after asking 30 minutes
later.

**I don't want, didn't want a lebaron, but I'm afraid to put in the car
I did want, since I might find one better than the one I bought less
than 2 hours ago.

Here is an example
