Actually fellas,
A PVC undercoating was Optional Equipment M-640. This info came from european price lists, so I have sometimes wondered if this was a ROW-only option, all I have ever seen here is a black tar/wax undercoating. http://members.rennlist.com/914_collectibles/OpEq.htm But I do have this COA of indicating the option on a North America-delivery car: (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Attached thumbnail(s) |

My 76 Rabbit had it also, as well as my 78 Audi 100, and most of the VW's I've had since. On hot summer days it becomes semi-liquid & oozes out of most orifices - year after year! Makes a mess anywhere the car is parked during the hot summer months. And, it never stops seeping! Don't know if it's the same compound you were describing, but it's messy! Pat |
