bought GTV6 and need advice



Greetings Alfisti!
       Dreams have come true for me today, 
I found and purchased a 1984 GTV6 today.Silver in color, tan leather
interior,85 k miles and godawful looking gotti gold and silver modular alloys
on it.I bought the car SUPER CHEAP,and there was a slight problem w/ the
car.(Of course).
I have NO clutch pedal feel at all, and what looks to be massive amounts of
brake fluid on the transaxle housing.The clutch master cylinder is dry as a
bone,so I'm suspecting A:bad clutch master/slave cylinder or B:busted hose
somewhere.Brakes are fine,so it must be the clutch.Any one out there got any
ideas/advice/hankerchiefs to cry into?
     I have been lusting after a GTV6 for a long time now,and now that I've
got it I hope it is or will be as reliable as my beloved Alfie (87 Milano gold
sedan) has been.There is very little rust on the car, some in the right upper
rear side of the engine compartment, and the left fender.The fender is ok and
none of it appears to be structural rust.I'd like some advice from GTV6 owners
as to the peculiarities of the model versus a Milano, etc.What should I look
for?
Mr.DiMatteo,I'd love to get some advice from you.Looking forwad to all
replies....
