Hey gang, just ordered a COA for Das Frog. Seen in some other posts that these can be rather inaccurate and incomplete. Just got a phone message from the women whom is working on it, saying they are checking into a "490" option code. Electric antenna? Car was purchased with no radio. Would the dealership take that out if the client didn't want a radio and install a standard antenna? What else should I ask for on the COA when I call her back? Trans #, Engine #, ? And, is there a way to distinguish which alloy wheels came with the car; fuchs or mahle? John (orginal owner), had them swapped out for steelies.
Thanks, Tod |

QUOTE FYI - the 74 MY AG would've included Leatherette covered steering wheel & shift boot, loop pile carpet, center console & 3 gauges, foglights/grills & dash switch, dual horns, sail/rollbar vinyl. In addition to that, mine also has the center tray w/hinged arm rest. Only thing it's missing is F&R stabilizer bars, factory undercoating, and factory radio from what I can tell. Looking at the COAs listed on Jeff's site, the information seems to be spartan at best. Wondering if the Kardexs are missing the information, or it's just not getting put onto the COAs. . |

It's a little of both Tod. I forgot to include the center tray/cushion on my list - it's on all 73-76 AGs AFAIK. Performance Group (PG - Sport Group? RoW & @ Jeff's options page) would've been the F&R sway bars + Fuchs 2L wheels (Mahle 4-lug on LEs or as an alt option at no cost with PG). |
