Back again, here's the Chassis No. 27804409G,first 3 digits tell me that its a 109" and
the "G" tells me its a 2.25I Diesel Motor..................and it fits somewhere between
1962-1979. But it doesn't tell me exactly which Year.
Can someone else maybe answer my riddle....................???????????
Thanks in advanced.

The "G" actually indicates design changes to the chassis itself. So this puts it between 4/69 to 10/71. What is you engine number as this will also have a suffix letter that will give you a date range to narrow it down even further.

rail............but I don't know what I'm looking for, can some one give me
a hint.........thanks in advanced !!!!

Head lights were introduced in the guard in '69, and of course series3 started in '72
