Indeed, I flew LIS-GRU on a MD11 and GRU-LIS on a B763 back in August 2004. Both the MD11 and B763 looked a bit tired inside but I was lucky on the MD11 because I got a seat in the middle seats of row 40 (the last row with seats in the middle) and I got plenty of legroom. In fact, IFE was a bit poor because only one film was shown on these 9-hour+ flights. The MD11 still had overhead monitors but the B763 had only the main screen. In fact, this B763 was used also by Varig to fly the EuroAtlantic charter flights so I guess it had a "charter" configuration.
However, I had 9 good domestic flights with Varig. The only annoying thing was the constant delays, usually less than 1 hour but 4 hours in one of them.
Cheers.
