Find SEMA Show Cars on eBay

It’s getting pretty close to that SEMA time of year again, and that gets a lot of us hankering for an over-the-top show car. Finding them is easy: on eBay Motors, click the Advanced Search link, specify "Cars and Trucks" in the drop-down menu, enter "SEMA" as your keyword, and check the box for "Search title and description." Hit search and voila. Of course, it’s up to you to verify whether your matches were ever actually featured as SEMA show cars—this A-Team van, for example, clearly wasn’t. But the majority of the rides in there, like this Magnum that was featured at the ’06 show, seem to be the real deal. I suspect that this search will yield an increasing number of matches in the coming weeks as the sellers try to time their listings to cash in on the buildup to the 2008 SEMA show.
