Ian's B6T Festiva build

[Festiva_Fred]

Very nice!

Looking mighty fine if I do say so myself!!!!

Ian,
It's looking GREAT !
But that sound deaden-er, hope it weighs less than dyna-mat .
Just can't see adding weight, well maybe some foam ear plugs.....

The product I'm using weighs 0.30lbs per square foot so I've added 30 lbs at most. The majority of that is on the floor as I didn't put any on the ceiling at all.

Reached a milestone today! I have everything off or out of the car that I'm sure will be replaced. Still a couple of things that may be replaced but won't know for sure until I start transferring stuff from my current car.







Rear bumper is primed and ready to sand and put the color coats on...


The biggest thing is I've started putting things back on the car!!!!

New Super-Pro bushing installed in the lower control arms...



Excitement level is increasing daily.

Thanks.
But dont you want it quieter when it hails?
With the speakers in the doors did any festiva's come with that or are you modifying the door? And what size speakers?
Are you going to pay someone to tint the back window or try it yourself this time since its out?

Ok, which product of theirs did you use and how many sq ft did it take?

I bought their 'Extreme' product. Used a little less than 100 square feet doing almost everywhere inside except the roof.

The car spent a lot of its life in BC which probably is a biggest factor in its condition.

I got the sound deadener from www.b-quiet.com in Lethbridge. Makes a big difference, especially on long trips. The best way I can explain it is that it takes away the buzziness. Doors feel more solid too and the stereo sounds much better.

Rear axle out.



Plan on getting a bunch more done this weekend.

Thanks for your continued interest!

Wow, i wasn't aware festivas with no rust existed in this province! Looks great! You'll have the only 45 year old festiva in Canada in the future.
Where did you get the sound deadening and how much difference does it make?

I asked about it once and the plates can't be transferred between people

So I was gunna go "V6TIVA" lol

[fastivaca]

Is there any process by which you could buy the plates from Fred? That is assuming he'd be willing to sell them of course. 😊

I wish I could get those plates for my festiva..... Buuutttt that was taken by the previous owner of my festiva.... Ugh lol

[fastivaca]

New license plates arrived today!!!!
