Nice point, Matthew! 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.
