      • Those labels are actually pretty cool - almost worth keeping.

                          That would make the down payment, how would I make the payments? :highly_amused: Actually, they're not as expensive as you would think.

                          • [QUOTE=eurotiva;641015]Well got Sketchmans valve cover gasket done. Which entails cleaning anything that comes off.... And saw a cool truck pull up to the shop next door.


                            Before...


                            After.....



                            Done.....




                            What's up with all the labels? Was this Festy previously used at an auto tech class?

                            BTW, super job on all your projects. It's pretty obvious why your business keeps so busy! Wish I lived a lot closer to you. I'd give you some of my business in a heartbeat.

                                That was a good primer for those of who love Festivas but may not be the best 'wrenchers' yet. I definitely fit into that category. I wish I had A) more time to work on mine and B) a super smart Festy mechanic next door who would be the 'brains' of my restoration. I think getting dirty (sts) would be fun as long as when you're done with your project, you don't end up with extra parts and the thing you worked on is actually fixed/works, know what I mean?
