  • Wait for It......

    Hey guys, if you look here http://www.fordfestiva.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=35977 you can see my Probe that I am currently working on, but I know you guys don't care about that

    SOOOOOO......... Let me introduce, well, for now, we will just call her F-Stiva!!!

    She is a wonderful piece of modern 1989 tech, even has an auto tranny.... for now.....

    I purchased her tonight with full intentions of replacing my 06 Audi A4, which now has For Sale signs in it. Right now, the house remodeling and the wifes student loans are more important than German Engineering....

    She has 104,059 miles, and looks pretty good for being 22 years young!

    And at last, on to the pics!!!!








    Well, there you have it, in all her wonderful glory! The trunk rattles a little bit, looks like the front main seal is going bad, but she now has fresh oil in her, and tomorrow she will get new plugs and wires. She also came with two brand new tires on alloy rims, and two mostly used tires on steelies. Thanks for looking!

        Thanks Guys!

        And no need to welcome, I have been here seven months longer than you, Ha ha, just messing.

        I will do a build thread on her, but that probably wont be until next year, the house remodel and the RWD Probe are all I can handle this summer, considering I work 50-60 hours a week!

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

              Nice! I grew up out in a small town on the Illinois side, but moved to Moline after getting my apprenticeship, cause I hated driving so far at five AM, ha ha. How is Colorado, I had some buddies move there from here, they say they will never move back!!! Ha ha

                Well, you will like what gets done to this car more, cause a ten second festy is probably more sweet than a 9 second probe!
