Re: Dehler Profi roof transplant onto a Syncro

Ah, what could possibly go wrong? Other than completly ballsing up what is already a perfectly good looking Syncro 16. Mechanically the tolerances my project has to work within are fortunately way larger than yours Pete, but the eye can be unforgiving of a wonky line or ill-fitted accoutrement.PetenAli wrote:It will look cracking when its done Patrick. Especially with matching paint. A toss up though whether its a bigger committment than building a 2.1 DJ which is my current obsession!
Not sure if the mouldings are coming across as well. DG has its benefits but I understand the frames are very brittle after 20 odd years sat in the sun and do not move well. If one of them breaks the whole lot goes in the bin AFAIC.silverbullet wrote:Nice nice nice I love 'em, even the bonkers side windows and mouldings (moldings? Always get that wrong but it goes well with the whiffy cat pee theme)
Thanks Mark. I may make a call on your offer. Ready for Syncropendence .... er yes, but not 9, more like 10 or 11 judging by the speed I do DIY around the house.Mudlark wrote:Brave man Patrick; thats quite a project! Lesser souls would have waited a long time for the right Dehler van to come along; sold the 16 and done the homebrew interior way round Your going to have this finished for Syncropendence right
If you need a pair of hands Im happy to give any assistance i can.
S'sparky we need to talk! PM'd you. I have some roof bed and shower parts if you're interested in some horse trading.southernsparky wrote:Hey Patrick.
