hi everybody can someone let me know how i go about finding out the model of my 1989 lwb turbo deisel eg460 463 thanks
hi eddie welcome to the forum
if its 1989 its probaly a 460 as i havent seen a 463 before 1990
check your chassis number the first three numbers tell you the model ie 460~~~~~~~~~~ is a 460 and 463~~~~~~~ is a 463
if you want to put your complete chassis number on here
someone on here can tell you the full spec of your g
thanks chris
If it's RHD then it's definitely a W460. W463s in RHD were only made as from 1990.
But just check your diff locks. If they are next to the gearlever and not as electric switches on the dashboard then it's definitely a 460
welcome eddie,and well done on your choice of vehicle.
send some pics internal,external and engine bay.I am sure the folks here will then tell you who the father,grandfather,great and great-great grandfather were of your G!!!
Eddie, from what I can see from your VIN number, your G is a 460 300GD LWB. It must be from 89 because a friend has serial number 66xxx from early 1990.
