That's SWRT working on his car, had some cool aero mods. And a spoiler that's awesome. His car got lca, sway bar bushings, rear bearing tightened, rear bent wheel replaced, shifter bushings, and valve cover gasket. Then Carl stopped by to remove broken rear strut bolts, them front suits, and front calipers. Busy day.... more tomorrow. And a pic of Danny's car tucking 13s....

      • Another Festiva/aspire day today. Went to ft Myers (175 miles each way) to rescue a 2 Dr aspire. Nice little car. I'm glad it runs great too, idled all the way home, so I could have lights . First time for Euro to haul a car more than around the block. Made me proud (some temp issues) but mostly uneventful.

        I do have to say that flat towing a car behind a Festiva is dangerous. It was pouring, and that aspire is heavier.
        More than once it slide my car sideways into gas stations, and intersections. I can say I've drifted a festy lol, I'm glad to have my old dirt track racing experience, it saved my butt. I have flat towed from madness to Florida before, but for some reason this was different?

              Dude, that was fun. Thanks again for all the help I'll have to make it back out there sometime.

              looked remotely like it had a brake like on it.

                Thanks, I have the Pride one with the light, but haven't gotten it painted and installed yet.

                    I owned that same Jeep,my Dad ordered it new in 67 with Posi front & rear.I then got it in 82 with only 20k.It had a 327 AMC HIPO engine & three on the tree.I lifted it 3" and added some 33's,it was a force to be reckoned with.
