This http://www.ig-syncro16.de/forum/ would be the main one.

No English pages but they'd be happy to talk to you in English

It doesn't answer your question but I know of a "normal" T3 forum that has an English corner (page).
http://www.bulliforum.com/viewforum.php?f=15

There are a number of Syncroers that frequent the place.

Any good scouting for T3 bits at the local breakers?

I was going to ask you about a Doka, right rear door, with frame, but thought better of it!

went to his place today. had ´crisis´ at every corner. shall post up some pics when i get home, did a video walk around the whole yard as well as photographing the nicest of vans.
he also took me inside the workshop to show me round his splities incl one unwelded untouched, one owner from new split and a real nice split doka.
the 408s were superb and bloody cheap, one of which i convinsed myself on the way home that i could really use for work.
some cracking ambulances and fire wagons too...
hmmmm...

Nice to know your having fun.
Pity you won't make the Stilrling round up but there will be plenty of other chances to meet up.
Look forward to seeing your photos of that Bay fire truck and all the rest of the cool stuff thats over there..........
