First of all, it's spelled 'syncro'.  'Synchyro' is the worst
misspelling I've ever seen! :-)

Secondly, you'll have a lot easier time finding one if you expand
your search to west of the Mississippi.  Denver, Albuquerque, San
Francisco bay, and Seattle are all Vanagon hot spots.  Warning,
however: Vanagons west of the Mississip tend to be more expensive
(they also often have less rust.)

Thirdly, keep your eyes on the on-line sites.  Daily.  That's how I
found Francis, my '91 syncro westy, after 6 months of searching.
