There were two smaller sized chassis that I recall in the 70's. Your '79 
was sold in the US as the Fox. The earlier model was sold in the US
as the Ur80. It was availible as a 4-dr and a 2-dr Wagon. Both of these
were different from the 100LS, which was changed in the 70's to the type
43 (US Ur5000). Don't know any of the other chassis codes.

We had a 1974 100LS 2.0L auto.  The next year the 100 had power steering.

There was a smaller fox that I remember, a kid at school had a 1979 one. 
That's my two cents

FYI, 
The Audi known in the US as the Fox was the 2nd gen Model 80 
in Europe, sometime in '74ish. It ended in '80 or '81. The type 81 
(US 4000) in 2-dr and 4-dr came in '82, so type 81's are NOT 
Foxes. The Fox chassis (haven't the bother to look up the # in 
Audiworld, not that interested, if you are, look it up),
