So its an XG then..........

What does an XG 6cyl Ute come with, this one is a 6cyl

3 speed Auto, 6cyl carb engine

What is the cc's of the 6cyls

Do they have different diff ratio's and do they have disc brake rear ends?

XG XR6 had twin lights and they fit XFs fine.

If it's a 3 speed auto and carb it's an XF. XF utes/panos ran til 1992.

Guess I should of noted the year it was built on the rego stciker opps

It does not have EF Door Trim or Dash, yeah know that I think about it, its prob an XF Ute done up as the interior looked XF'ish.....

But maybe the XG had the same looking interior

XG-XH are pretty much XF interiors anyway. Dash and door trims are the same.

XG had the same looking interior with updated dash cluster, the XG XR6's Came out with twin lights from ford, no XF came with twin lights they are all brought after market, if its a 6 cylinder carby, then it will be the 250 (4.1) or 200 (3.3) but i dont think the 200's got put into the utes. the interior should be close to Xf but will have a few different items.

Certainly not a genuine XG XR6, they had projector low beam lights, and indicators in the front bumper.
Its got an XH rear bumper too

Has chrome trim on the A-pillers too, thats suggests an XF. And no side stripes, which also suggests XF.

Although considering the other mods to the exterior, those little points doesnt mean alot.

Here's a picture of an XG XR6 ute. Notice the indicators on the upper bumper, which indicates it's genuine. DrHemi's pictures don't have those indicators so I doubt the lights are genuine

XGs all had 4.0L motors in them, EA-ED type consoles a similar style(read similar) EA-ED cluster. They also had the EA-EB type grille but still retained the ancient steering set up from the XF.
