Nice! You could probably sell a couple of those. ;-) What's the key for? I'll enjoy following the new owner's blog, very nice rig.

Have you seen the battery boxes I built into my previous Syncro? I cut out the original boxes and fabricated deeper ones to fit group 27 Lifeline AGM batteries, one in each side, tied together with 1-gauge cable so they acted as one large 200Ah battery bank. With the ease of starting the TDI I didn't install a separate starting battery. The van is heading on a long adventure trip to South America with new owners. kruisinkoru.com

Here are the boxes: http://westyventures.com/batterybox%20(4).JPG http://westyventures.com/batterybox%20(6).JPG
