Beretta.net

Hi All. It's been awhile since I've been on a Chevy board. Last time, BStuff was still up, and I was a member of the Corsica board. Clearly some time has past. I used the same name on both boards, but I doubt anyone would remember me, as I didn't post much.

Back then I owned a 5-speed '90 Pontiac Tempest LE, and installed a 3400 into it in '05. After a few years, I pulled everything, got rid of the car, and reinstalled in a '90 Beretta GT. Had some fun in the car, did some light mods, learned a ton about cars, but eventually I gave up on the project. My knowledge was quite limited when it came to handling rust. I still have the car, although I don't drive it. I have moved in a slightly different direction when it comes to cars. I now own a 5-speed '92 Nissan 180SX with the factory installed SR20DET. Love the car, and most importantly, love the fact that it is rustless. In saying that, I still have a soft spot for Berettas, and ALWAYS point them out when I see them.

Lastly, I live in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.

I am from Ontario as well and not too far from you, couple hours east of you or so.

Same here I'm a few hours south.

i think next summer we need to setup a beretta day with everyone in ontario, there is a few i have passed on the road around me but very very random and not often i know where 2 of them live at least ive drove by a seen the cars there. i have a upper filler panel im going to drop off to 1 of them, i cant stand driving by and seeing their panel broken LOL.

Theres a 95z26 in Newtonville wreckers just east of Oshawa if anyone needs mint interior. the seats are spotless in it and its clean, if i had the cash id be gutting it and swapping it into my 88 with the dash.

cool stuff. i'm game for a meet, there are a couple other members around as well. i'll text one and see whats up.

You still got my cell number ? i think i still got yours in my phone not sure though, need to find some good country roads we can cruise on, lots around here but no one is going to wanna drive 3 hours to get here lol

not the best pictures but i snapped a couple when i was there. never noticed that dent in the door till today, maybe someone hit it with the loader going past it i dunno, im sure it wasnt there on friday.

yeah those power lock switches~ i need, as long as they arn't too greedy on them. you said Oshawa? whats the name of the yard? not standard? they got free parts day, i still want to go to that.

umm its in Newtonville. im not sure the name of it ive been there 3 times. its off of highway 2 10 minutes from Port Hope Area. so its east of Oshawa and east of Bomenville

oh yeah, that's about 2-1/2 hr's from me, depending on T.O. traffic. the gas cap hinge looks decent as well

gas cap hinge was pretty rusty but was functional, i un bolted it and when i went to pull it out it was falling apart so i just took the gas door and left the hinge.

It was a complete car before i started taking stuff, anything you see missing off it, i have it LOL

yeah the box in the wheel well is usually most of the 'looseness' mine is questionable at best. i had a decent spare hinge with a good amount of surface rust on it, i cleaned it up and coated in 'chassis saver' and hope to not have to torque on that box again... next time, it'll be missing.

i dont have your phone #, i thought i saved it, but i guess not... that was a previous phone, so that might be the issue.

on topic, this guy's car i on kijiji there, 3400 5spd., toronto area

Welcome back!

We should try to even do a weekend of camping in the muskoka's or wasaga or something.

that's a pretty cool idea.
