1991 Chevy Beretta GTU
3.1l v-6
5-speed
new tires
new enginge
new transmission
body in good shape
interior is decent, missing plastic bezel where radio was
white with factory spoiler painted with red checkerboards (really looks OK...)
some type of aftermarket rims powdercoated to match color of car
900$
(gonna take digi cam when i go, and post pics, it's not the most beautiful car I've ever seen, but it'll be cheap transport)
Gonna drive it tomorrow or Thursday...
then decide.....
Gotta be better than the Blazer, plus that leaves me with 2k$+
to spend on system or whatever.......
P.S. The problem with the Blazer was the Ignition Control Module, replaced the coil and still didn't get any spark, so I guess i get to take off the distributor, and check that tomorrow... BLEH....

If you're having problems with chevrolet.. why did you buy another one? you could've gotten an old nissan or toyota beater for the price and not have to worry about mechanical reliability.. I'm just trying to see things from your point of view..

cuz I've known the last 3 owners of the car, what's happened to it, and where it's been, i can't guarantee that on any other car that i look at, i wasn't having problems with chevy, just checy's piece of **** no good crap eating 2.8l..my best friend had a Lumina that we ran up over 200k on, and drove hard, pretty quick for a whale, now it's in pieces in a field 
And besides I like chevy :P I don't see anyone offering me a nice 7 for 900$....
