Hi, Vintage 3DRC.
These are the only sites I could find with any sorts of specs for them. Lever shows BASIC sizes for a cable opperated 463 and Veritread seems to think that the 463 was self-propelled rig.

Just my 0.02.
You have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
