    Happy Birthday!
    Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.

        Did you use the stock automatic Festiva radiator?

        Oh, and about that road trip... let me know when you go! I may just join you, time and resources permitting!

            He's on the west side of the country, like a short drive from the ocean so I doubt he's coming to madness lol

            1988 323 Station Wagon - KLG4 swapped
            1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
            2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

            1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

            If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

              Lol yeah if you thought Ian was far away... add another 10-12 hours of travel on top of that. There's very little chance I'll ever make it to madness, but we'll see how things go I suppose. Maybe eventually if the girlfriend and I feel like it, we'll swing on by! I'd love to do some roadtripping across to the farside of the country/world.

                I'm a hustler, trust me. I'm a pedaler, although apparently not as manly as McKabe and not nearly as much as Neanderpaul... according to the survey...

                  That is some awesome work!

                  Where did you get the silicone couplers? There is quite a variety.

                      Yeah, I couldn't imagine anyone driving from the west side all the way to the east side. They would have to be insane, or foolish. :p

                            I'm thinking about driving up to convoy with Aaron/Mike when they drive to Madness and we can stop at your place and then all convoy to madness together. Now that would be an adventure! two white festivas and two red.

                                For folks that aren't quite sure to make of this line I seem to recall seeing unmistakable pictures of your spotless white car with the discrete twin cam at last year's Festy Madness and yet I have noticed your home turf is Arizona.
                                A successful two way cross-country run in a highly modified Festiva is testament to methodical and thorough work by it's owner.
                                One day I hope to have the time, and a reliable enough Festy, to make this journey too.
