Who dives a 463 - 300DT
I would be interest to know how many others in the club drive a 463 300DT either factory built of aftermarket?
We all know that car was diving few time but others might be driving their G rather than diving it ..
howard ,there are two i have built one lwb (now living in southern ireland) and a swb and that lives in jersey .
both have no electronics and go like stink.
Do you mean om 606 dt 463. If so im in with aftermarket lol

Sav's is the only factory one in the UK I know of. Bruce's before that.
Luckily I got rid of mine to some unsuspecting punter :p
OM 642's is where it's at baby.

And the blue LWB (SANY1614.JPG) is an absolutely lovely truck! Mark took me for a spin in it before I bought the SWB.
damn lovely!!!.... one day, I'll have one like that!
Hi Howard - I have one.
LOL.... or a better name for it would be a 'Q' ship........ if that's the one that came from a certain location near Somerset......

A Hobart funny in my world is what is commonly referred as:
' A G wagen that has been 'expertly' restored by a 'professional' person, for example; either one half of a brother duo or maybe someone who could possibly have worked in the aircraft industry or is likely to be advertising a company that could possibly have been struck off for bankruptcy. To buy a 'Hobart Funny' can mean putting yourself in serious fiscal and life danger'
BTW it was the Americans who used the 'Q' ships in WWII, we on the other hand were using them in WWI *sniff*
Oh yes and mine is a 'Q' ship - no ranks, badges or markings - that is until the lights go green.... yes - a cheap thrill, but a thrill non the less....
(as ever in jest)

yes Hus, I'm still here mate and the G is still going really well.

Didn't realise that I was alone in that regard, it's a rare beast indeed.
And didn't realise you had sold yours as I'm sure I've seen it knocking around North London.
OM 642 - is that a 350? if you're still local, I wouldn't mind a look at that as I need a LWB and am weighing up options...
hi sav !! good to hear from you after all these years. glad you still own that lovely G. it went like a bullet. spider was shocked on our way to stonehenge ! mark was bombing it on the motorway with spider close behind him. my G300 petrol had no chance !
mark, thats right, bruce had it up forsale for a while....never realised why he sold it ? he use to love it....
hey sav, never seen the pics you just posted before...please email me them. hus55@hotmail.co.uk
brings back fond memories.
btw, did you see the video i took of climbing that muddy hill on 18" road tires...? the disco before you struggled to climb it. you walked it...:)))))
