When did galvanized bodies stop?

I read Galvanizing on Porsche 911s, A History, by Randy Webb that goes from 1970 to 1977. My question is, when did galvanized bodies stop?

Fully galvanized bodies began with the SC's in 1978. Galvanization before that was only on parts of the bodies. I don't know if or when it stopped being done.
