    Would there be a possibility of making a complete moulded front end (front quarter panels, grille, front bumper (choices include STOCK/GTX/GTA/ATH) in one piece like that jag desk and have the hood detachable?

    He probably got ferrari parts paying around like we got festy parts laying around but I just thought it would be easier then a shogun. Cuz its just a drivetrain clip yea my imeganiton goes crazy with festys like what could I slap on to make it better 24/7.... festys are a gift and a curse..

    And eurtiva with you learing to do molds how far fetched is a frount clip for your 11s festy with the fenders, hood, bumper fold foward like a camaro drag cars? With it all 1 piece you would knock a lot of time of I would asume and reaching the 10s!?!?

    He has lots of high end customers that need mechanical help, without being taken to the cleaners.

    I think the Ferrari owner might go for it. He's yet to ride in my festiva, but he says he is a speed junkie. As soon as he stops by the shop, I'll show him how his Ferrari "should" run. Parts should be in by Friday.

    And Jawbreka.......That's so funny!! Awesome scenerios
    Even so, if he won't tear this one up, maybe he might know where to get a 2nd engine and running gear from.

    Just point these out as the main selling points and he'll be all like "yeah, let's do it"

    Just as a comparison, get a BP loaded festy, take him for a drive and say "it'll be like this right, but the windshield and front wheels will sit about this high (indicating front wheels over his head).., whilst operating" Oh and mention that the Festiva will need drag trolley wheels installed here and here (pointing to the rear bumper) to prevent that from occurring..

    Tell him that Ferrari is so old school and that the cool kids now play with beyron's.. He'll either laugh, cry or wanna punch you out, so here's the plan..

    If he cries, tell him it's OK and you'll help him build it and he will then say in an upset tone "really?" and pass him a tissue or two and proceed to explain how he would then become the most legendary Festiva owner... Period.

    If he laughs, put a hand on his shoulder and look at him like you'd just seen a high speed car accident with a brick wall directly from the side lines and say "I'm as serious as a heartbeat" and with him knowing how much the Festiva means to you, will instantly click in his head and say "scrap the Ferrari body, causes daddys found a new home"

    If he wants to get all fistycuffs with you, this will require a little mind play and the repeated phrase "is what I thought I heard you say" and "from what I recall, it wasn't like that at all"

    Another solution, crash the Ferrari (so its useable as a donor car) and then point out the Festiva is a perfect substitute for the Ferrari (point out its "like looking at a mirror").. He'll see it completely from your point and say "do it", starsky and hutch styles.. Lastly, crank the 'wheels in motion' in the background, pull a Nicholas cage from gone in 60 secs where he has his little "low rider moment" and then proceed with the awesome montage of building this beast.

    BTW, might want to find a red Festiva to pull this off.
