Welcome! Here you will find my project restore of my daily driver vehicle. I bought this car brand new off a dealer lot in Ohio with only 16 miles on it. Since then I have put about 217 thousand miles on it as of today. Though to be fair, out of the last 15 years this car has been parked for about 5 years total during that time.
Last summer, I started work on it again, getting it back out of storage, put new tires, battery, and alternator in, and started driving it. That lasted a month. That is when a deer laid claim to the car and totaled it. At least I had the satisfaction of totaling the deer! (And no it wasn't worth keeping for those that ask)
Pictured below is the aftermath of that impact. At this point in its history, aside from the enhanced stereo, aftermarket sunroof, alarm system, and a slight pinstriping (all added right after I bought it) this car was still bone stock.
Fortunately for everyone, this car no longer looks totaled. These days it looks much better! I have added some new pictures taken in the past month. More details to the rebuild process will be added here later on but for now you can view the rebuild over here .
Some of my older shots right after we finished painting the whole car:
A few night shots, showing off the custom LED lighting:
Here are the newer pics of the Z taken within the last 2 months:
Yes, I have taken ALL of the pictures personally with my own Panasonic 7MP. Not the worlds best camera but I have learned to shoot with it well.
Here are some shots from two different mini-beretta meets I have gone to this year. These pics include shots of 6 other beretta's that I met, both in Michigan and in Ohio. The first one was shot by one of the other owners.
I have met with many different people over the last few months. Learned a lot about these cars and try to offer help to some on the two websites I visit the most. Those being beretta.net and bstuff.com. You can usually find me there, as I also have a sale page on custom made LED lighting for these vehicles. You can find that here as well .
