My syncro westy is in good shape on the interior, is solid mechanically but needs some help on the body... it has some of the vanagon seam rust woes as well as the typical rust area behind the kitchen and under the windshield rubber which I will need to address (you can see some of the seam rust in my picture above, running on the drip seam below front passenger door). Fortunately it's not too bad yet and I've done some body off restoration/paint work on previous vehicles and feel up to the challenge.
As island911 said it is a desirable/rare model and you can go far into the backcountry with the 4wd and lockers etc and camp in relative luxury. Since we're discussing prices etc, I picked up my syncro westy in January for 18k CDN, about 14k USD at the time and I feel like I stole it.
