  • Festiva # 9 and #10 ?? [Updated with video]

    This woman my wife knows ask me if Id be interested in buying a couple of festivas. One is a 1988 and the other is a 1993. Both white. That's all I know about them. Going to go take a look when I get a chance. She said shed like to get $400 for both of them. I know she was driving the 88 to work until it quit on her and it seemed OK the one time I saw it. They had ask me about a few repair questions about a month ago but I hadn't heard from them until now. I'm fantasizing that one is an LX and the other a GL :lol:

            I'm not so sure I like the carb situation.

            At this point I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not. Nine festivas is just a little excessive. I was kind of hoping someone would talk me out of it. Anyway I going to go have a look Sunday afternoon. Ill take some pictures.

                              I didnt make it to look at these festivas the first time because I was at the festiva meet in St Louis . I went and looked at them today. Id go to the ends of the earth for festivas, or at least it seems like it. Three blocks after the main intersection in the closest town the road turned to dirt. The festivas were about three miles south on the dirt road. Glad I took Redford


                              The 1988 with A/C, tan interior, and 128,000 on it.
                              The 1993 L with 156,000


                              I actually think I rather have the 1988 then the 1993. But then its a carbed four speed. I never had an 88. Thats dirt on the rockeres of the 1988. Almost 100 miles round trip.
