  • My 1990 Indy Beretta

    Not sure why I didn't post this over here since it is a 60degree and I'm obtaining some nice parts from here for it's future build... But here is some info on my other Beretta... I call it my Wife's beretta so I don't get in trouble for having two

    We picked this up back in Aug of 2012...

    Found it on craigslist in Coram NY and I tried contacting the owner, I did not get a reply so Amy tried and she got a response because she sounded like she was truly interested in the car... I guess I worded something wrong lol...

    Car all loaded up on the trailer... We drove down with the trailer expecting to just buy it after negotiation because the pics of the condition were that good.



    Car had been painted at one time, that was the only downfall... The trunk and hood were done very poorly so I knew I had to get those re-done... The right side GFX was also hit at one point and flexed and cracked off the paint so that had to be re-done/replaced. The big "Problem" with the car was a bad injector that was preventing it from running properly.

    Home off the trailer...





    Scuffs




    Poor wheels


    Reproduction die cut decals already on the car




    Very good condition interior... Dash bubbled and cracked though.


    Missing Lower panels as well






    Surprises in the glove box


    Rust free rockers, just lots of mildew...




    First wash




    Making Decals...


    Koni's for the front


    Already had rears because the first set of Saabs I bought for the 96 were too long for it and are direct bolt in for the 90.

    ORIGINAL AC delco plugs... Another reason why it ran like crap, in conjunction with the original wires.


    Bfest Prep, still need to get hood painted and full suspension upgraded but back to running properly... New wires new plugs, new crank sensor, new oil pan gasket new valve cover gaskets new EGR.


    KONI fun


    Weld in bushings




    KONI installed






    Suspension TCC and trans filter/fluid all changed, waiting for parts back from paint


    Applying new decals


    waiting for drivers door decal and spoiler... Other parts on


    Engine bay


    Rolling through the mountains...


    The two when we went to TN last year


    I will post other photos as other stuff is done to it.

    I plan on pulling the engine eventually doing a full freshen and maybe slipping in a new Crane H-272-2 cam in there, a set of 1.6 roller rockers, as well as making a set of my TOG headers fit it...

        I like it. I had a 1995 Z26 for a short time. It was a nice car.

        I just noticed we are practically neighbors. Hopefully I can see this thing on the road sometime.

          It will be on the road come spring, no questions about that... But the turbo kit won't be on it yet. That will have to wait till next year with all the stuff going on with my 96.

          Were are you located btw?

            Enfield. I'm in the process of getting my Z24 back on the road, and I have a TGP that I'll probably unload in the spring.

              Enfield is close but you probably wont spy my car out that way... LOL Not too often am I out that way. With work I only go north to Pomfret so I tend to stay on the border side of the state unless I go out on some good rides, OR hit up some car shows out that way.

                I travel all over the state, including my in-law's place in Sterling. I usually head over to Mark's Cruise Night a few times a year.

                    Yes it is. I lived there for a short time before we got this house I'm in now. Like I said . my mother in law lives there, so I avoid it like the plague. Next time my wife wants to visit, I'll have her drop me off there and we can tinker with the cars. . .LOL
