Now does "rust faster" mean
( i ) it WILL rust faster
OR
( ii ) it is RUST FAST as in semi stainless
Just a thought,
Just to prove that I occassionally, actually, properly, read the "post" before commenting.

Re: Differences Between 460 - 463 body

The reason i ask is, now i have a original 460 body and chasiss, I want to have constant 4x4 so I was thinking of switching only the axels and high-low gearbox.
Or i could sell this G and go for a complete 463 and switch the chasiss to make it a oldtimer for tax reasons.

The last option cost alot of monney, and I just did allot of work on this 460, so I was just thinking what the best option was for me.

Sorry for my bad english.

4-live,
Your English is excellent, I was not intending to comment on it.
We native English speakers are very lazy re learning another language.
Like the Brother in law working for Lufthansa in Germany for 15 years, can just about order a beer. :oops:
PS
I do not think it is practical to put a 463 body on a 460 chassis, different mounting points etc, etc ?? But do not take this as "the gospel"
Cheers,
Marcus

Re: Differences Between 460 - 463 body

i dont know in my little opinion that is really worth all the hassle. that would mean scrapping the good bit of the 463 (its all good but the saloon interiors are more desired by the masses) and then going to the hard job of fitting the 460 body. you seem so have done so much to yours already!
