"the galvanized stuff" is standard on the 5k body starting with the typ44 chassis (1984 model year). You already have them...

no, galvanizing started with the introduction of the typ44 back in '84. It was the first fully galvanized Audi. Produced along side the 944.

By 86 or 87, all Audi's were fully galvanized...

I can find out for sure this weekend, when I see my dad (dealer from '81 to '92).
