1977 Volkswagen Scirocco MK1 Classic VW one owner

One owner 1977 Volkswagen Scirocco. This car still has its original California pink slip, first registered January 11, 1977 so this is one of the first 1977 Sciroccos sold in the US. I think the color is jade green, it and the interior are original. Original is the best word to describe this little girl. She is rust free, accident free, frighteningly complete and unmolested. The single owner took great care of this car, it was a daily driver for the first 20 years or so, it currently has 155,xxx miles on it. I have all of the original paperwork and documentation, including the original owners manual, service manual, warranty manual and I have the original "pink slip" title and window sticker... yes the original 40 year old window sticker. The owner is a retired Japanese Engineer, he documented and cared for the car as you would expect. I have a stack of 25+ index cards filled with notes about the care and service of the car. The factory service manual has notes and highlighted areas all over it. The car also includes thousands of dollars in spares that he amassed over the years, the list is below. It was parked about 10 years ago inside a garage, last registered in 2004. I got her in the Fall and I have driven her about 200 miles. I have a buddy who has owned about 20 MK1 VWs, he helped me wake the car up after being parked for so many years. The list of what has been replaced is also below. She drives very well, shifts gears smoothly and doesn't make any bad noises. Look at the pictures carefully to see how well preserved she is. Body panels are great except for the clear coat and the scratches. The bumpers are great and not a single corner has scuff. Interior is great, nice dash, great panels decent seats and nice carpet. All of the glass is original except the windshield, all of the window rubber is great. All of the door seals and such are great, minimal wind noise.

I have found a few minor problems and I bet she has a few I didn't find. The fuel gauge stay at a 1/4 full, the shifter has slop, the seats rock a bit, the dome light doesn't work nor does the lighter. All of the chassis rubber feels soft (engine mounts, shock mounts, etc) but the car comes with spares of those! The owner wrapped the front coils in heater hose making the front ride about an inch high. The motor has a few oil weeps but doesn't spot the floor. The driver side sun visor isn't mounted and the windshield wiper washer motor doesn't work.

This is a time warp car, so cool and not messed with. A appreciating classic, when was the last time you saw one this nice?
