looking for dream parts

Post by mjmudd » Fri Feb 02, 2007 9:24 pm

Hello all,

I am sure I am looking for the needle in a haystack but here goes. I just bought a 1965 ca77 and am looking for these items in NOS or very close replica:

mufflers in decent shape
honda fender ornament
seat (cover) in really nice shape or solo seat
driver footpeg rubbers
correct tires


If you have any of these or know where I can find them, please call my cell at (314) 609-8588.

Thanks, Mike

What I did months ago as create an eBay search on the terms "honda ca77". When the search results come up sort by "ending soonest" and then click on the link that states "Add to Favorite Searches".

This adds the search to your "My eBay"page. Now all you have to do is go to your "My Ebay" page and click on the link that represents your saved search and you'll see the latest results for "honda ca77" sorted by which auctions are going to end first.

You should also repeat these steps for the terms "honda dream" and maybe "honda 305" if you want to be certain not to miss anything. Some sellers use different terms referring to Dream parts, if they even know what they really have, so you have to be sure and cover all the bases. I believe if you create one search with all the terms "honda ca77 dream 305" you would only find those items that match all the terms and would miss out on a lot, that's the reason for the 3 separate searches.

On my "My eBay" I even have a 4th search saved. Since most Dream items are listed as CA77 I have another "honda ca77" search saved sorted by newly listed so I can find some things as soon as they're posted.

You can also have any or all of these searches set up so that an email is sent to you whenever something new matching the search is listed. But I find this to have a delay of 24 hours or so.

Good luck.
