I don't have it on my car,but I have a trailer hitch for a 1st gen that the previous owner of my car bought for it,and never used.I would bet that is a rare option.

Oh yeah I also have a working original power antenna on my 5/78 car which has to be some sort of record(beat only by 64mgb I am sure).

all leather sports came with the solar gold colored waffle wheels, despite the color of the exterior. of course there were only three choices; brilliant black, aurora white, or solar gold.

as far as rarity, i have the original floor mats for the leather sport, the original unused spare tire, and a factory mazda bra from 1980 that i bought from an estate and it WAS in the factory sealed bag until i opened it and put it on my LS.

on my 10AE, i have the optional glass break sensors that are integrated in the security system as well as the bronze tinted moon roof. the moonroof was a dealer installed option.

yeah, thats the original factory stereo. there were i think three different stereos that could be had in the 7 for 80. mine only has 4 speakers and i've never seen a first gen with more than 4 from the factory.

although you're lucky to have the original window sticker. that is one thing i want for my car. if you could scan yours and email it to me, that would be amazing! then i could photoshop my vin in there and print it out and then i would have as close to a window sticker as i could get for my LS. what are the last 4 of your VIN? i wonder if they're close to mine.
