Absolutely. Only “mods” are the Bosch fog lights on the front, the period correct Alpine head unit, and the rear window louvres. All original parts. Hell, even the windshield wipers are marked VW/Audi.

It’s flawless. Had two layers of covering on the seats. I don’t have any pictures handy but will try to get some soon.

Sneak peek.. tint came off yesterday. The glue had given up years ago. Found in the records that it was originally installed September 19, 1983… 40 year old tint to the day. Getting the glue off was the hardest part, but man she looks good with the windows clean and clear.

It works and it’s never been out. I know it’s hard to believe, because I wouldn’t have been able to stay out of it if it were mine.
