Isn't that a T3? The it would be "Vanagon" as it is in North-America, I guess? |

Filmed in Quebec, so not "Made for US". Panel version was not available in US either, but was in Canada. Not sure what they were called, but probably not Vanagon. -- Last edit: 2016-09-06 00:03:30 |

my book calls it Transporteur ( probably would be transporter in english ) when it comes to the Panel one |

yeah, the little Ford parade is fun to look at... he even made a replica of Ford's Glass House to go with it ![]() -- Last edit: 2016-09-06 02:44:25 |

First brochure available online is from April 1984, MY1985? Anyone notice this is a Syncro? Apparantly a new option for MY1987. Available until MY1991 (no longer as Syncro, though). |

wow... there is some contradictions with my book and the brochures.. when reading the pages, it does mention the Transporter but for an unknown reason they are not in the price list at the end of the book ( that is the reason why i thought it was so short-lived at first because i checked the price list ) . Maybe by lack of information ( it did happened in the early/mid 90's with BMW , the author was so fed up that he wrote a message concerning the issue on every BMW page in the book ) or simple error because the other work vans are listed but the book says Synchro is new for 1986 . Then still a mystery about the : new for 1986, Transporter available as panel or with windows as well as in pick-up form single or double cab in my book.... ![]() |
