Default Re: 1973 T/A SD

Yes, I think many E-Bay sellers put "SD" in titles for early Trans Am's and Birds, while GTO sellers like to put "Ram Air" (or RA) in the title. Just draws more attention through searches I guess. Many E-Bay buyers and tire kickers have E-Bay alerts set up for specific keywords like "SD", so it guarantees more exposure and interest.

No harm, no foul, as long as the actual description explains that the car is not really an SD or RA car. Chevy sellers like to put "COPO" or "SS" into their titles just to draw more attention, or likewise "W-30" for the Olds crowd.

I've seen some ads where they put &quot;COPO SS RS Yenko&quot; in a title for a base 1969 Camaro. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

If only they would also put &quot;CAUTION FAN STICKER&quot; in the title, we would know they are total BS auctions. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]
