  • Saved another one from the wreckers!

    I got a lead on another Festiva the other day that had been advertised for $275.00. It's a white 93 5 speed. Went to look at it and it is very straight body wise. Obviously had a big sound system in it at one time as there were wires all over the place. It wouldn't start which is probably due to the wiring being in the mess it is.

    The drivers door won't open and the lock is missing so I've got to get that apart to fix.

    Talked the owner down to $100.00

    I'll get some photos up later.

        I payed $100 for my first one. I replaced the clutch and drove it for over a year before I sold it still running strong.... for $650.

          Good score, Ian! I considered having a look at that one, but then figured I have no where to store it. Besides, I really need to find a donor Aspire. I almost had one of those real cheap, but the people who had it got kind of flaky on me.
