Just to point out that the chrome hubcaps were standard on all buses but those with alloys here in Europe, all the way to the finish. On some low-line delivery models the caps weren't even chromed, they were painted silver. Both my present 87 Syncro, and my previous 88 Syncro have the chrome hubcaps, the plastic caps is an American item. PerL 87 Syncro 112i |
