No, sorry. I stated in my 01/06/08 post that I might get back to this car sometime during the summer. I'm now wondering if I'll get any time to work on it before 2009. This year has gotten very busy for me ... and that's a good thing. Thanks for inquiring!

Shameless *bump* to keep this from being archived. No progress has been made lately.

What year/configuration Beretta? A 92 DeVille has the appropriate tripods.

The right shaft from a 1996 Beretta is the short one. 12 3/4" long $18 from A1 Driveshaft http://a1driveshaft.com/index.html
I used a inner CV Tripod from a 1990 Cadillac 4T65 trans. Mine had slides
The inner tulip (outside portion) from a 1994 to 99 This also had the slides
I used the stock Fiero outer CV.



Although I just looked at a pair of axles out of a 96 Beretta and the driver's side (left) axle was shortest. It appears to be the same length as my other axle (a little less than 13") -I think out of the Celebrity wagon. I'm using the Celebrity outers because I upgraded to the larger bearings and brakes from said Celebrity.

Sor, but this is just a bi-monthly "bump" to keep this thread out of the archives. I should be back on this car full steam again in January or February. <Ken>

Not painted & I haven't finished putting it together.

It's for sale if ya' want it ... http://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum4/HTML/044670.html

Price goes up when/if I finish putting it together.
