RHD Westy Syncro!!! Ok strange Toyota (diesel?) engine but it could be outed in favour of something more Euro-friendly...
Don't forget the 10% import duty and vat on the lot

Yup it says 1982 alright, probably a typo and most left hookers have a sliding door on the right! Interesting sliding window on the sliding door. Id say its an early syncro (86/87) from Europe. This one looks as though its got a Hilux engine fitted and they go for ever (if a bit lumpy).
There used to be quite a lot of T25s running around Ireland with a 2lt Nissan Bluebird diesel engine conversion, which by all accounts was a good swap. The conversion kit was made locally.

Looked right through the obvious...I'm going "slider blind"
That sign on the warehouse is syncrospares! Mysterious/el dodgo... Anyone care to have a word with syncrospares then?
When you move your mouse over the picture it says "VW Caravelle - same model as this"

so the picture don't mean shizzle.
