Mark:


I remember this vehicle, or a similar one that had been changed, in
the past--the Cedaredge, Colorado, rings my bell.  Archive search
hits on 22-26 March 2006, for a VIN-changed Syncro Doka, with
remarks about the previous "mystery Doka" from this seller.


Look at the items they have sold--all for about $5.  Makes you
think they were just generating positive feedback....
