going through files on my computer I came across a series of pics of a very nice syncro passenger van, and I just posted them on my blog
http://shufti.wordpress.com/

I don't recall where I got them, if anybody recognises them I'd like to get more info for attribution etc. One modification is particularly interesting, and that is the raised instrument cluster. I bet it improves the cluster sight lines especially with the non-stock steering wheel.


edit: the tall seats also would play havoc with sight lines to cluster, not to mention headroom!

Just bumping your post back to the top - I would love to have one of those pedestals myself! Wink
