You  know, I just get tired of seeing these kinds of Westys. The
excitement at  first is soon overshadowed by the poor workmanship.
I give the fella credit for good ideas, but the
implementation of  those projects seem to have been done without much
forethought.
Making modifications to a Westy is something like playing  a
game of chess, you have to think several moves ahead; what will  the
final project look like, how will it affect other systems.
It took a few minutes, and during those minutes I  had
contemplated selling my Westy and buying that one.  Then I started  to
find the sloppy details.
If someone  didn't have a Syncro Westy then this would be a
good place to start. It is  a great vehicle, no, it's a fabulous
vehicle, if you are not concerned  about 'fit & finish'

My two cents worth.

I have to agree David,
I hate to see  the supply of  "un-raped or butchered "   Westy's  and
Vanagon's  continuing to dwindle at an alarming  rate.
I guess I am just a purist .
