The dealer sticker in your rear window is from Lanock's VW. A quick internet search indicates they may have been a dealer in Australia. If so, it's been on quite a journey. The OP's car was also located in Australia.

After months of looking i found one of the earliest Stereo Blaupunkt Frankfurts from the late 60's Smile

These were fitted as dealer options to the Audi'sCool

This is even more rare as its a USA version which has FM/AM buttons vs the usual U/L German buttons.

Im so chuffed:

Not much of an update at the moment. I would have liked more to be happening but my mechanic went away on holidays and will be coming back next week. but in the mean time here are a few things that i got that are interesting:

NOS uncut Ignition key as you can see with the original Door key:

Original English manual (most are in German) with original folder:

This came in the mail from Germany:

Certificate of Production from Audi:

As you can see it says the car was a UK delivered car which I am investigating. Unless all Aussie
F103's were designated as UK cars due to them being RHD? Also it says it was delivered in 1969 which according to my records has been in Australia since 1968. At least the colour codes are correct Smile

It also came with a copy of the original Production Card:

I also bought a copy of Australian Motor from 1967 as they were reviewing a LHD Red 4 Door F103 before it was launched in Australia:

Came with a Castrol poster which i thought was funny with the "race" cars they chose:

SWEET!

I was hoping you were going to whack it with the lowering stick. Cool

You going for a static drop or an airride set up?
