1987 Syncro Westfalia
Inspection & Mechanical Repairs/Upgrades

This Syncro came to Quentin’s Garage for our 150 Point Comprehensive Mechanical Inspection. After spending a few hours with the van reviewing every key mechanical component and system, we were able to gain a complete understanding of the vehicle’s condition; the good, the bad, and the ugly.
Following the inspection the client was advised on a number of repairs and upgrades to improve the reliability and overall driving experience of the van.
Scope of repair:
Installed a NOS South African Radiator with German made stainless-steel radiator baffles to match. Refinished radiator brackets to keep everything looking new as possible.

Pathfinder Designs Reproduction Instrument Cluster foil circuit board.
T3 Technique heavy duty upper and lower balljoints.
T3 Technique Heavy Duty sway bar and matching end links.
Steering shaft overhaul with NOS coupling disc.
Shift Linkage overhaul: New bushings, transmission peripherals and viton boots.
