@@swaguilar9323 you should. I bought my teal 91 in 97 while in high school. I still own it and I can say that it's been more reliable than most of the women in my life
I've always liked the Beretta. My mom had an 88 when I was growing up. I had a 90 GTU myself. I loved that car. Both my moms and mine had the 2.8L MPFI V6. Wish I never sold it.
I own a Beretta too, 1991 2.2 model. Very cool car man, love it. I live in The Netherlands and you don't see any of them over here so getting parts is a bit of a pain. But hey, nobody that I know has such a unique daily driver tho. Fucking love that thing.
I restored my cavalier Z24 so Restore this Beretta! Any car can be restored! Congratulations and good job getting it started and running! Try putting so Lucas, prolong and mobil conventional oil in there! Should make it run like wet ice against wet ice. Paint it! Red pinstripe it and redwall some new tires like I did mine😂😂😂
@@swaguilar9323 depends of how deep you wanna go! Mine rotted out so bad I had to find a complete floor from rocker to rocker out in oklahoma from a 90 sunbird took a year and a 1/4 to get it back from restoration. Love my car to much to let it go so I took down many neck aching phone calls to get my car perfect, while myself doing other cosmetic work. Look under your carpet and take a look to see if it is rotted or good! Depends if you wanna go for it🤷 You could drop a 3500 LX9 Swap in the furure or make it a Z26 clone🤷 if you love it enough, go for it👍. If I can do it you can do it Edit. My car sits worth $10,000 and is going up in value as a classic car, you'd be surprised of the potential in any car, that doesn't seem worth it
You shouldn't do a RUclips video cutting down a car if you don't even know when the model came out.... The Beretta came out in 1987 not 1993 and it was very very popular because it was the "Affordable Muscle/Performance Coupe" that you could drive everyday from GM and replaced the Monte Carlo/Nova. It was also by far cheapest car in it's class with the Mercury Cougar/Ford Thunderbird (Base price $15,000) and the Dodge Daytona/Plymouth Laser ( Base Price $13,000) at the time. It was the High School Dream car of most of us mid Gen Xers because it was actually affordable, 2-4 grand isn't much of a difference now but back then it was alot, in today money it's $5800 so your talking 26k for the Daytona/Laser and 28k for the Thunderbird, That's a BIG difference in price for a car in the same class.
Thanks for sharing your expertise, I'm sure anyone and everyone watching the video and reading your comment greatly appreciates your contribution, myself included. I am by NO means an expert when it comes to this car. I just wanted to share what I worked on. Thanks again for sharing...
@@swaguilar9323 If it passes a compression test, I'd say no. Put your efforts into changing everything you can made out of rubber instead. That being said, if the pan gasket is leaking and you need to pull the engine anyway, I would refresh the engine at that point.
Did Chevy not expect for the Beretta to last this long? They should have a recall and give us a free tank, as a promotion to show how long these cars last!! Thanks for watching, hope you enjoyed...
These cars were tough, even in snow lol.
Was the best car i ever had for snow.
My first car was a 1995 Beretta, seeing the interior and stuff bring back memories! Great video man
Glad it brought a moment in time back to you, 👍
There’s a lot of chevy beretta content on RUclips as of late.
That's inspiring me to continue with this one for more content...👍

@@williamsinger4124 😂👍
california. where cars can live rust-free forever.
Thankfully yes, so many positive responses I may continue to bring it back to life, thanks for watching.
Still In way nicer shape then mine, still trying to restore it, cars in my area face lots of abuse
True, this one has good bones, just needs to be given a makeover..

I know, i am going to continue working on this one myself

Didn't realize they were global, but that's great to hear, best of luck with yours

Should we continue to work on it?

Donate it!
It would be a great gift for a graduating high school senior!!
No, it's better to restore it; because to donate it, they'll just scrap it.
🤔
Good video.

I actually want a beretta as a project car
HMU, I'll sell you this one... :)
Can I have it? I need parts
No
I'm actually thinking on bringing it back 100%, what do you guys think??? 🤔
@@swaguilar9323 good idea 👍🥰
Only 8 years? Wow..
Actually my brother said it was more like 11 years, but it's running...
Should we keep going and rebuild it?

The commentary was kinda annoying, but other than that it was a good video
Thanks for your comment, honest, what do you think I can do to make it better?
Just learn of how inflation works?¿
So are you saying I should get it up and running fully because the value is going up🤑? Or is it a joke on the tires, 😂?
Lol over ur head
