Is it a Syncro?

[ninja.turtle007]

I have seen a Caravelle parked on a driveway. It has truck mirrors and looks pretty high on the suspension. It has been sat there for sometime. If it's a Syncro I'll give them a knock and see if they wan to sell it.

Is there any way to tell if it is def a Syncro without getting under it. I have the reg if that helps.

The fuel filler cap is at the back/side and not on the front wheel arch because of the fuel tank being in a different place because of the prop running along the underside of the van

You can just about see it in this picture,

Good point but I can only see left side and rear.

Look for the bash plate on the engine maybe? Or the syncro badge on the right hand side of the tail gate? Or leg it up to the window and if it is a RHD it will have a twin diff lock panel under the radio and run off again

The wife who has more confidence than anyone I know went to speak to the owner. According to the owner it's a Syncro but not a 4x4. (Am I missing something here?). Anyway It's not for sale.

Maybe the prop??

If the passenger side is on the left, ie a RHD van, the filler could be a water tank.

As said above, the fuel filler would be at the back on the right.

I guess if it isn't for sale, it makes no odds.
