Greg the G is for Gratz Austrian build as the VW factory in germany tooled up for the T4.
It says in the link Ken sent that these builds were loaded with options < has yours got many add on options they mention below> as the bits from stock were utilised.
So the G builds were assembled at the stayer puch factory and not returned to VW for completion.
I did read somewhere that some Syncros were assembled in Japan from kits supp;ied from Puch ??????????
Below is a copy and paste from Kens Link ,
Thanks Ken Best Regards Pete
And that's it. Production ended, Never mind though as they still produced them in south Africa until 2003. It's interesting to note how little the vans were made towards the end. As far as I am aware the later vans ('91,'92)were produced in Graz in Austria in the Steyr-Daimler-puch factory with production at Hanover,Germany coming to an end at the end of the 1990 model year, The Vans built in graz were the fully loaded LLE (limited last editions), Vehicles for the German forces, taxi's and the Syncro models.
This is not gospel but what I have been lead to believe,if you know different then please get intouch.
