Phat VR6 3 Posted February 9, 2009 Report Share Posted February 9, 2009 Yeah really hard to find the parts dude. Over hear anyway.Over in Germany there are loads of syncro mk3. onces with small engines and drum brakes on the rear, think 1.8 8vs and diesels.So search german ebay for long enough and i hope you would be able to find one.Unsure about the rear floor pan. ive been told you can just remove the spare wheel recess. How true this is i don't know.Might be an idea to look into 4 motion rear axal as there's alot more about over hear, Might even be better for the job. Bound to be more work though but anything can be made to fit Link to post Share on other sites
sharky_70 0 Posted February 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 yeah i appreciate i'll probably have yto source most parts from germany. be good to find out if there's anything that was common from mk2/passat to mk3, would help to broaden the search. all pipe dreams at the moment anyway! did think about just buying a syncro but dont want lhd or 5 door Link to post Share on other sites
