Thanks Mike! Luckymc420, work starts this weekend(there is alot to do,so it will take time). 6r8ph1X, you bet man, wish me luck on finding them. SGR, I just spent alot of money on many things for my camera(filter,telephoto etc.), so I'll need to use it just to see what I got. I do have a crapy digital camcorder(lost track of the USB cord and CD, I'll look). One last thing, the drivers door has a dent in it. I have some 96 doors of the same color,but they only have power locks. Would it be to hard to change everything out? The wires on the other doors have been cut and I don't want to reuse those wires.

So let me understand correctly MPB. You have currently in the car power windows AND locks and want to put a door on that has ROLL up windows and power locks? If that's the case , it should be a straight on switch. You'll just have to cut or tuck the power window wires outta the way. If both doors are power locks, yes easy switch. Am I understanding correctly here bud?

I hate when I don't put things clear. I was thinking of the dent in the power window door(just wanted to use the shell of the other door). 6r8ph1X, I got a new Chilton's at my part store it's#28480 it has info for the 3100 and newer cars. It's not a good as the old manual, I see on the first page that the old one it has Chilton Book Company, the new one has Haynes also. Looks like we are screwed, it says that Chilton's trademark has been licensed to Haynes. I hate Haynes! I'll post later on how the oil change, plugs, wires and all that I saw under there.

nice find there glad to see u back in the beretta world, and I know how ya feel going thru withdrawls and having to have another one. After the Indy got wiped out I hated not having one to drive, then saw the cayenne red Z26 on ebay and had to have it. My plans were to fix it up and sell it to pay my truck off, but all that changed.

95Z26beretta, great to hear from you! I'm much more happy now that I have another. Hope things are going well with your rebuild. This car wasn't a urban Beretta, a mouse chewed on the plug wires a little(there was a nest in the air cleaner box). The control arms, frame and back by the rear springs has rust.The 90Gt didn't have any rust on the control arms and the frame had a good amount of oil on it from the rear main seal leak. The sway bar end link on the passenger side is gone(it was the driver's side for the 90GT). SGR was right on the fuse for the trunk release. The plug wires looked as if they were OE, the had Delco-packard Delcore 2 on them. Two plugs had heavy ash. The passenger door creaks when it opens, but doesn't sag. 6r8ph1X, I did get a AC oil filter like we talked about so long ago(it sounded like a dry start, but I put oil in the filter,also put Slick 50 in the engine). Well, this is starting to drag on, so I'll say again that it looks like I'm back to work.

sweet action money, good choice on the oil filter, i remember that convo. For your wires, unless you already got them, get some new ones(I got msd wires from a 5.0 mustang and they worked awesome) and the plugs i would recomend AC delco Rapid fires. Like i said unless you already got them. I"M STILL WATIN ON THOSE NEW PICS MONEY!!!!!!!!! I'm gona bug ya till you put up some more man take care.
