Hi Durby,

I just went through this with the PB campaign on my '86. Call VWoA and they
*should* have all the records pertaining to your VIN number. It doesn't
matter if you are the original, second, third or whatever owner. My local
dealer did hassle me quite a bit, but surprisingly, VWoA was pretty helpful
once they realized I was determined and had done all the research (thanks
Joel et al).

Good Luck!

tony
