1990 Chevrolet Beretta

Phillip Sharp, Richfield, PA

My ride is a 1990 Chevy Beretta. We bought it for $200 and fixed it up to look much nicer than it ever has.The car had a few spots of rust and the paint was just not the color of choice. My son decided he wanted to make it look like a Z26, so we did a lot of custom fabricating. We got all the ground effects from junkyards. The front bumper needed the most work since it had been broken right through where the turn signal should be. It also had to be completely shaved out to fit the base model fog lights into the holes meant for a newer Z26. The interior was the worst since the previous owner left his dogs in it to tear all the seats up and leave dog hair in every crack. It's been a fun experience for a father and son to work on this car together. I know that my son, Nathan, will appreciate this car much more for his first car since he worked so much to get it ready. The car has undergone a complete transformation, and while it isn't flawless, it is a very attractive car. The car went from a beat up base Beretta to looking like a brand new Z26. It has made us both very happy to see this car be transformed from nothing into a brand new ride.
