Freshtiva gets a promotion

[freshtiva]

Owned Freshtiva since 1993. Gave her a promotion today for service above and beyond the call of duty and because of the numerous upgrades. I think I counted ten upgrades in the second picture. The black pinstripe will come off when the red hockey stripe goes on soon. Should match the new PLUS decal.

[25Horseplay]

I only counted 6 in the second picture. 1 Spoiler, 2 Festiva and L plus decal, 3 Alloy wheels, 4 Rear wiper, 5 rear package tray cover, 6 Fordfestiva.com sticker. What else is there? I should count how many I upgrades have!

Looks like ya missed the taillight paint, maybe not.. hard to tell

oh yeah, tinted windows as well :wink:

dang I missed another 1.. Rear wiper.. It was a 93 L not GL...

[25Horseplay]

Windows yea I guess so, I didn't think the taillights are tinted.

[freshtiva]

Hint, I left the hatch ajar. ( two more). I also counted the rear wiper and rear window washer separately because one could be done w/o the other. The festiva mud flaps don't show up in this pic after I edited it for size but that was one.

[25Horseplay]

Ahh.....7 light in cargo area!, 8 mudflaps, 9 rear window washer, 10 yellow thing sticking out by pass. taillight!

[freshtiva]

:lol: :lol: ^ the yellow thing sticking out by the taillight is a rafter tables booklet to keep the hatch ajar. The other thing is the cargo light latch. Not just a switched cargo light.

[25Horseplay]

Guess I figured the latch and light as one in the same!

[freshtiva]

Id like to add the rear window defrost into the picture.

[TRUCKtiva]

ha ha rear defrost stock he he he!!

Is that the wiper assy I sent you? How hard was that to install? Also, a rafter tables book? Are you a framer? I didn't think there were any carpenters on this site besides me

[freshtiva]

^ yes it is the wiper assy. from you and the rear window washer set up also. It wasn't to hard to install. Ive got pics of the process if any one needs them. I use to do some residential framing. I think I could still cut a valley rafter 76&1/2 inches to the long point of a thirty degree bevel on the back side of an 8/12 if I had to. Or however you framers talk.

[htchbck]

^^^ yep, thats pretty much it on the framer talk ... I've been out of framing for a while I work for a small remodeling company now, and I still do some freelance carpentry (mostly cabinets and furntire type stuff) on the side... I'm addicted to routers now, I have two table routers, two full size 1HP plunge routers and a half horse small handheld, plus close to 200 bits. I consider myself an artist, and with my routers as my paintbrush I can turn any block of wood into my canvas

oh and on the pics, if I ever find another festy with rear wiper i'd like to see some pics of the installation, I doubt I'd do the washer nozzle and stuff, cause I don't think I'd ever use it, but the wiper would be nice to have back there

[fastivaca]

I you have the wiper you'll want the washer stuff too... and they're operated by the same switch anyway.

[htchbck]

yeah but if i get the washer stuff I have to install it and judging by how hard of a time it was to get the tubing for the washer out of the car when I pulled marcus's I hate to have to try to install some INTO the car
