Older fella I work with is clearing oiut a bit of his old VW stash (was a VW mechanic in the maitland area '70's.

Anyhow he seems to think this is a mechanism to crank open the front quarter / vent window in bay window kombi, but I think either his desciption is wrong or my interpretation is wrong.


What yas reckon it is?

Cheers Brendan

No this is slightly newer than mine as it's for a c1

My f103 is pre c1 but some other parts carried over:cool:

Thanks for the help guys....

From what I can see audi 100's of that era arent exactly thick on the ground in Australia, would that be right?

I don't think there are many early Audis about now and probably not many sold new in Australia

that is one weird winder gearbox... lol

The Audi 100 first went on sale in Australia in 1970 and continued until 1976. There was a lull in 1977, then the new 100 model appeared here in 1978, but was now called the 'Audi 5E' for our market.

For the early models, 1970-73 inclusive, only 282 were sold in Australia according to the FCAI. That's only 70 per year on average.

We published a detailed year-by-year sales history of Audi in Australia in the July 2007 issue of Club VW Sydney's 'Zeitschrift' magazine. You can download it here:

Phil,
Weren't the 1974/5 Audi 80 Fox models an Australia only version. I think that they had a Passat rear suspension.

Phil74Camper - May 2nd, 2013 at 08:39 AM

Not sure, haven't seen one in ages. I don't know much about the Euro versions to compare. But the Fox was certainly the only Audi to have ever been assembled in Australia! (CKD). It took Audi 20 years to break the sales levels set during the Audi Fox years.

Hi

Going from my memory you had to be careful when ordering rear end parts for Foxs, I think Phil is correct they used Passat rear end parts.
