Pause and questions! Here: http://syncro-werkstatt.de/MRB-syncro013.jpg the PS battery box lid looks the same as DS. (no fetid lip in the way hampering battery R&R) Do all Syncros have this or was this standard on all Vanagons after a certain MY? Any guesses if paint was removed only via sand blasting, or were chemicals used too? Looks very spic and span: http://syncro-werkstatt.de/Entlackung%20vorne.jpg I'll never be set up to do something like that, but sure would be fun with the right gear/space etc. Thanks for posting the links Alistair!
