My Pride and Joy

For those that don't know me or my car, I own a 1995 Beretta Base. I've owned her for 10 years and I still take pride in her. The odometer currently sits at 284,000 miles. She hasn't seen the road since September 2009, but she is in the garage awaiting the day I can restore her to her natural beauty.

Right after I bought her in June 2001

Chris, the wreck actually happened back in September of 2004. Its been fixed for a a long time. Not many people know I once wrecked it. As for the visors, yes they are Ventshade visors.

Absoutely gorgeous as always. ALWAYS a pleasure to see pics of your car 95BB. Good to see you again man! IMHO , the NICEST Base on any Beretta board, but in a VERY close fight with Wanako's baby!

Thanks for the compliments everyone, I didn't think anyone even knew I was gone. We'll say mine and Wanako's Base tie for the best Bases :). As for when I start working on her, its hard to say. When my father passed away in August, he left me his '98 Chevy Silverado. He bought it new and I want to fix that first. Its actually in pretty good condition so it won't be too hard to fix. I think the truck takes precedent over the Beretta for now.

But I can't wait until the day that car rolls out of the garage. 300,000 miles is calling my name!!!


BTW, where can I go to get a sig made??

Actually I stopped driving it because I figured I would start tearing it down. Then my dad was rushed to the hospital & diagnosed with leukemia and it was put on hold.
