1985 Westy Syncro......would you or wouldn't you?

OK....final question to the expert panel before I fly tomorrow is regarding M codes...

I have found conflicting versions regarding the M code for Westfalia based T3s.

The first site below states it should be 253....
http://www.westfaliat3.info/html/westfa ... guide.html

Whilst the Australian site provides the following.....
http://www.syncro.com.au/VW-T3-T25-Syncros-M-Codes
stating that it is code 255

The van I'm looking at has code 253 299 (kombi,multivan - syncro) located on the inside right door pillar

Which is correct?

Westys are kombi based not cracked based.
253 is correct. The full 6 digit type number would tell you what it is/ was.

Thus begineth a work in progress

Thanks for all the help so far.......I'm sure this is just the beginning of many a post on this forum......
