RE: any mk1's come with power steer?



Title: FW: any mk1's come with power steer?
That would be a dealer installed sliding sunroof.  Chris Delong, Geordy and I have them on our cars......It was a modification done to roughly 1500 cars from 1975-1981 by mostly west coast dealers.  The tops are either made by Wethershields Ltd. (up to 1978) or Brittax (1979-1981)

My old '75 didn't have power anything (except for that little engine).  No options at all, except rear defog and wiper (not sure if these were standard equipment or not).

Oh, and that delay wiper thing that had no switch and would come on when I'd hit a bump and then couldn't be shut off.  That probably was an option :o

And get this it had a factory vinyl top, never seen one of these before.

I dug up an old picture for you non believers.
