For those not of the facebook syncro site.
You may not have seen this come up on the german ebay.
Based on a google transaltion, this appears to be a NOS complete syncro body shell!
Wonder what the story is behind that. Shame its not rhd, I have a need for a new rhd shell.

Can anyone shed anymore light on this, or even why it exists... may there be more?

i`d like to shed my light on it.

i would like my sheds light on it too! (or garage)

Q Plate unless you go under the wire.

Five and a half grand and still 2 days to go ..... the value of a Syncro eh!

And it not even a 16"

shame it's turbodiesel but wow

goes to get lottery ticket

Shame it,s got windows, would think a panel van shell would be uber rare, have switched to playing Euromillions, prizes in Irish Lotto wouldn,t finance a syncro

Make a nice art installation! Cheaper & better than that Damien Hirst bloke!!

Anyone here bidding on this?

You're joking. No way, Bhpdub told me it was a rusty piece of sh!t.

I remember having seen a US spec one (with the holes in the sides for the extra vanangon lights) on the German Bay about a year ago - think it was a 2wd body though. There were some forum discussions over here about how to register a car with a "virgin" VIN (since this would mean you'd have to fulfil all the legal/emmission requirements of a brand new car). Don't know if the same applies to UK, but then, there are ways to "transplant" a VIN from one car to another

Hmmmmm, white turbo diesel panel van Syncro shell......hmmmmm

A re-shell isn't illegal afaik, as long as all the donor parts are transferred in their entirety? A virgin body bodyshell wouldn't have a VIN stamped on the underside, would it?
