i think they were nice i know one of the cars had nice fillers that were black. but alright we will be going back in less than a week. when the bf gets paid. and yeah he was taking the line off for my car. not many beretta owners around here. so it will still be there. as long as the morons dont go in there and smash the beretta logo on the filler. like they always do. also im thinking about taking the hood from that car and just keep it black til i can order the paint and get it done. also sorry i did not answer back sooner i was out working on my car all day yesterday. got my exhaust done (not the best) and got my brakes done but need to figure out why my brakes are still going to the floor before it stops and they are smoking. (prob still has a leak)

There's a rubber line in the rear, its like 4" long and goes from the body to the axle, then its solid line from there to the wheel cylinder.

Well i guess if you say it's there then it must be.I don't remember seeing one.But then again my car is always somewhere else most of the time.;)

well think of it this way... you axle moves, to and fro in relation to the body. needs a flexible line

Yeah one part is attached to the axel area and the other is attached to the chassis of the car. We do the work on the cars our self. Don't trust shops. Haha. If I brake somethink than its my fault not someone else. Just like I do my own oil. Which is on my list for tomorrow also. Let's hope it doesn't get as cold as they say it will.

I love working on them. i grew up fixing tractors with my father. Im just getting into cars. but love them already. i get frustrated sometimes and yell at the car, haha, i guess i think that if i yell at it, it will listen and be easier.

96's seem to fair MUCH better than the 94-95's, I haven't figured out why but that seems to be the two worst years on rust.

I went to look at a blue 1996 base tonight after work.It's been parked for awhile i think.Alittle rust on the rear quaters.Nothing to bad.The guy said it has a new trans from gm.He also filled me in on how it was fast.He said check back end of june and he might want to sell it then.He's also the original owner.

I would have to agree. The 95's have always seemed worse to me than the 94s, but having owned both, I would say they both rust well. LOL

Which is why my next one is either going to be a 96 or a 90. :P

yeah, if my roof rusts much quicker than the couple bubbles it has going now... i'm gonna have a convertible for next summer! and i'll likely have to remake the rear sub frame if it starts to degrade faster...
