Hello. First "restore" effort; 69 Fastback, automatic, with a/c. How can you tell if the a/c was original. I don't want to keep it as it is not currently functional unless it was original to the car.

depends on what you mean original. Factory installed, no. Dealer installed, probably. Post some pics. You arent going to find any documentation from the factory though, maybe if you had a dealer window sticker or reciept, but then you'd already know

All A/C units were authorized accessory/ dealer install. same with radios, Playtape systems, etc.

Several different manufacturers supplied the "official" VW A/C units.
