Reattagirl (my dear wife) stole my thunder - we arrived 4:30 Sunday - put 640 miles on our 89 Reata -now have 8,699 on odometer! Driving thru heavy rain really sucked. Have to wash and detail car all over again.

guys - I found some more pictures from the day we bought the car - you will see the dashboard picture shows 6,865 miles, car now has 8,056 miles. Please overlook the cheesy floor mats - they were there to protect the real floor mats. I have since bought some carpeted floor mats to protect the real floor mats that protect the real carpet! Can't have too much protection - HA HA

I'll re-introduce myself - Tom from Pittsburgh - I used to be on the board here a lot, then went AWOL for a while. I guess I burnt out on it for a while. But, the National BCA show always get my blood boiling for my old Buicks!

It has been before the format change since my last visit and I had to get my login and password set up again. Good to be back!

OK - now I'm starting to get excited - looking forward to driving to Danver's in our 89 Reatta (except for putting all those miles on the car). Going early to enjoy 4th in Boston and taking in a Redsox game with a highschool buddy now living in the area.

I am the SECOND owner of this Reatta. I have the original owner name and number to maintain history lineage.

I have owned this Reatta for 2 Years and 9 Months. I bought in Sept. of 2008

I am selling this beautiful car because I need to downsize my collection ( I have 2 other driven antique cars). I also do not have the car trailer this car deserves to be carried around on. I have had to borrow a trailer for the few shows I did take it to - and can only do that so many times. We will drive it to the BCA National in Boston - we anticipate putting 1,300 miles on it for that trip. We are hoping to find someone who is looking for a "trailer queen" who can pamper this ULTRA LOW MILAGE car. You can see the car in Boston if you are interested - or come to Pittsburgh - I live 6 miles from airport and can pick you up.
