204 = 204 inch wheelbase

H = Dark Brown Metallic
U904 = LT900 diesel, 50,000 lbs GVWR
QG8 = I do not have upholstery info--appears to lack the butterfly hood but otherwise I don't have a reference.
No transmission code. Since this is a special order, and the engine is already ID'd as special order, the transmission must be part of it. It should have identifying info on a plate or cast into the case.
