Look who I found!

Post by Beretta1234567 »

This was an auto show at the IX center.

The car had changed for racing in the interior. Not sure about any engine/trans mods. Lots of trophies.

I also forgot to mention, thats not a paint job, that is a big checkered sticker all over the outside of the entire vehicle.
Upon closer inspection, I found that there is a good amount of rust in several spots i saw it was all rippled under the sticker in several places.

I know I was considering turning my Beretta into a race car at one point, but after seeing this, I'd rather buy a kit car type race car instead.

Man, I'm getting a headache looking at that thing. They should have made it a giant Magic Eye or something. I feel like I'm looking at a color-blindness test.

Glad its not a Z.

I forget the name of the show. But its at the IX center, and anyone can enter their cars, as long as you pay the entrance fee to enter the car. Show is once a year, separate from the new car auto show they have there every year.
But that does not exempt you from having to pay the spectator fee to enter, which is basically just as much.

I wanted to enter my mint condition indy, but there was salt and snow everywhere.

Edit:
They had jeeps, armored vehicles, some planes, plane engines, part tables, stands of things with info, turbo stand, supercharger stand, etc...
They also had a rocket. I checked, its no longer operational. LOL :burn:

:shock: Wow, um yeah, just wow. The wheels look good... I may consider doing a black/white paint-job on the wheels from my old Z-26 and put them on my GTU to replace the black GTZ rims if I can't find a usable set of GTU/Indy wheels by the time I have to replace the tires... So that was something beneficial from seeing this. Now please excuse me.. :bad:

I thought my comment was hilarious.

But I think that this car is "Finished".
