A very nice 77 Barcelona:





From Matt's email:

"I purchased it this March from an elderly woman who lived in Eastern Washington where the climate is pretty dry so there is virtually no rust. She ordered it direct from the factory and used it to get groceries and garaged it for the past 23 years. Her son, a mechanic, actually sold it to me.

Everything on the car is original. I think her son told me that his mother accidentally scratched it one time and he had it detailed. He showed me the side but I couldn't tell. There are a few nicks but he gave me the dye information on the paint that he had someone in Seattle specially mix up for him if someone needs to touch up.

The interior doesn't even look like someone has owned it. She did add one after market "feature" and that's a rear brake light in the rear window.

I just had it serviced and they told me I should replace the transmission fluid but after 20 years I figured that was expected. There are no major leaks but the guys at the shop suggested systematically replacing some seals because of the inactivity of the car.

I had to move a month ago and no longer have a garage to store it. I'd like to sell it to someone who could appreciate it and take better care of it then I can right now."
