I will be restoring a Syncro Panel van shortly and would like to see as many interior and exterior shots of different vans as possible.
I have searched the net and found a few, but nothing detailed.

Anyone with a Syncro panel please upload or forward photos directly to me:

[email protected]

Much appreciated.

Thank Matt.
I am specifically looking for pics of the commercial cab divider and rubber mats in rear.
Finished interior shots too.

I'll keep me eyes peeled. Very Happy

not certain if panel vans ever ever came with rubber mats in the rear, though.

you'll find more experts in all things syncro than you can shake a stick at here: http://www.vwt3.co.at/index.php?name=Forums
Austrian forum, but don't worry about posting in English.

On the first posting, pictures 1 & 3 show rear panels without the vents on them. Were these converted into panel vans, or did some years not have the rear vents?

vents were not standard, at least not til '88. M-Code 219. Incidentally, the rubber mats were M 066 ...

To hell with the rubber mats; what are those jugs all about? Is that a prototypal Mr.Fusion install?

Well, the system has advanced quite a bit since the '80's but not as fast as other products like the cell phone.

It is a hot water tank for the owner's custom on board hot water system.

Thanks Matt.
That panel is very similar to the one I will be working on.
More of the commercial version with the cab divider.
The divider in my panel goes all the way to the roof and has a window in it. Very similar to the rear of a Sinka or Doka.
The white one in the link you sent is in really nice condition.
