1989 Chevrolet Beretta GTUAbout This Vehicle:
This car was the subject of a several-month-long
project. Converting the car to the 3800 Series-II Supercharged L36/L67 hybrid was one of the easiest conversions I've ever done. In all, I have less than $1,000 invested in the car, it has more WHP and torque than the tires can use, and handles like a race-car... And she sounds as vicious as she performs. Body Style: Coupe

Engine: 3800 Series-II SC
Transmission: Manual
Interior: Red cloth
