Beretta.net

so i got my beretta in November and it wasnt doing so hot. its now August and I am pretty satisfied with it

when i bought it:


blue mirror didnt match the other black one, haha


stock cluster


i had 1 back speaker


broken blinker stalk


i took the wing off


my rims didnt really match, haha


back plate thing was cracked

and after like 10 months of really slowly working and like 2 weeks of basically straight work i have got it basically done.

my mirrors match now


i had 1 back speaker, now i have 4


my gas cover is no longer rusted, and its happy, haha


not filthy carpets


black rims that all match


same wing as before


GT instrument cluster, with 70k less miles on it, haha


back panel thing from a '88 GT, it looks different, but i like it



thats my car, what do you all think of it?
any questions or comments are greatly appreciated

Tip: You can change the reading on the ODO fairly easy to match your old cluster.

I would have left the "lip" of the rim polished, like the rims from my old GT.



Did you swap to an analog oil pressure sending unit so you get oil pressure readings? I HATE the base cluster but I'm remedying that tomorrow in my Corsi. It's coming along. Get some duplicolor paint and paint that gas door to match the rest of the car(like $5/can and easy to do). Same goes for the filler panels. You can sand/spray them with duplicolor black for like 10 bux and make them look REALLY good. I did the fillers on my GTZ that way cause one was a black filler and the other clear...(only the top one was polished in that pic so the lower was a little 'cloudy' looking cause I didnt polish that one)



Slow progress is good sometimes though. Keeps money in your pocket. ÂÂÂ


Oh and house speakers in your car FTL!!

i really do like the polished lip on the rims
and i'm still in the process of deciding on just retouching the things that need it or just repainting my car

and the speakers are just a very temporary thing, i'm getting a new deck, all 4 new speakers and 2 subs next week, haha  

and in the finished pictures my car is filthy, i never let it get that dirty, but today i went to a disc golf course that was back 4 miles on an unpaved road  

You play disc golf?  I use to play that all the time, but then the gnats & mosquitoes started to get out of hand and I never went golfing again...  

Paint on the tires ftl!  Should have atleast masked them off!  

Slowly but surely your progressing!

it actually isnt paint, it looks like it, but i put armor all tire shine on them in the morning and then drove on a dirt road  
and yeah, i play disc golf, probably too much, haha its like the only thing i do during the summer time

kill that wheel gap, replace that dash
otherwise, you're going in the right direction
look foward to more progress pics

how exactly do you change the miles on the ODO to match the old one? because i was getting close to 222,222.2 miles, and i was actually kinda looking forward to that, haha

WOW.......

I dont know what is the worst the part, the home speakers, the black spray painted wheels (and tires) or a FCIPH!  

the home speakers are a joke, the tires arent and never were spray painted
and FCIPH???
