I still love the pictures from your Beretta meet where everyone brought a tent or a camper... I wish we would do something like that... ROUGH IT! lol
Re: 91 Beretta GT 3.1 V6 5spd - EuroSpec
I think it's mostly because it's so much more expensive here to have a hotel. Those camping permits may actually cost the same or more
Last time I actually rented a small cottage with no luxuries at all, just lumber walls and bunk bed, not even electricity, and it costed double

Its not cheap thats true and all other guys want to camp at the meets but i have to say its alot of fun. Always had a great time and also its nice to fall asleep and wake up beside your car
Re: 91 Beretta GT 3.1 V6 5spd - EuroSpec
Allright guys, heres a little update!
After driving the Camaro for about 4 months, the beretta was parked in garage and slowly got some love...
First i did was some underbody work. I removed some rust spots on the rear end, more likly surface rust cause i got everything off. Put some stuff on to keep it clean there.
Then i swapped the old beaten dashboard out to replace it with another one from my old 92 gt which had a red interior. I painted the dashboard with a very very good paint and put that one back in.
After that i put in a new clutch in since the old one was slipping bad... also put a new seal where the cam is, it was pretty leaky there! I guess there was some oil on the clutch disk cause it didnt even looked that bad, maybe that cause the slipping.
Then i swapped in another shiftcable i had laying around along with some interior stuff. Also painted the passenger side door cause it had a big ass ugly scratch in the paint and i was sick of seeing that scratch. Also i had to swap back to the Eurospec rear bumper cause the Camaro is a Eurospec too and shares the same license plate.
And last but not least, put on nice dewstrips on both sides that were not broken in 10 pieces like my old ones were
A week ago i put on the crosslaces rims with the wintertires on them and gave the car a really good bath a polish and waxed it. Now its all shiney again and back on the street till next year when i take out the Camaro. Then its again time to do some things to the Beretta... i am not sure of what i will do then but one plan is to MAYBE repaint the door to make it perfect and paint the rear bumper, gtu lip etc.

And now back together, these pictures are maybe a week old:
I am happy driving the Beretta again even i have to say its really different compared to the Camaro. The Camaro is really stiff and makes alot of fun but i like the Beretta more as a daily driver since its more comfy. Im loving the new clutch and the look of a clean Beretta, i surely like to have a nice clean ride that i drive everyday

Oh man that is still very clean. I'd be damn happy to have it!
keep'em flying!
Re: 91 Beretta GT 3.1 V6 5spd - EuroSpec
Looks awesome, you gonna get the rest of the GTU kit? Or just leaving it as-is? Either way looks great!
I love the wheels too, and the fact that it's a 5 speed.

Thanks guys!
Well i have the rest of the GTU kit, i just havent painted it yet and i have to say i like how it looks right now. I probably will put on the GTU trunk i have to see how much i like it on there and maybe i will add the rest of the kit when its painted, im still not 100% sure but we will see

I've replaced that seal about 3-4 times and it's leaking again. I've come into conclusion that i's design fault in the engine. Insufficient seal design. Maybe machine the end-plate to allow using O-ring...also put a new seal where the cam is, it was pretty leaky there!
Re: 91 Beretta GT 3.1 V6 5spd - EuroSpec
it was still the original seal there and my car is nearly at 170k km, lol. lets hope that it will be good for some time
Re: 91 Beretta GT 3.1 V6 5spd - EuroSpec
So, today was a pretty nice weather, it was shiney and tempreture was 15°C (59°F) and i decided to give the beretta a really good clean. I washed it and cleaned everything inside the car... also did some other small things like polish the rear bumper and polished the exhaust tips.
Here are some pictures:
I am not a big fan of winter so today was awesome for me with that nice weather!
Hope you enjoy
