Whenever I can't work on it I feel guilty kind of I guess I'm just really anxious to get it back on the road and start driving it And now I want to get a 2nd Festiva to swap a aspire engine or B6 in, and do an aspire swap on Dang FDD I already know of a decent shell I could probably get for cheap, that has very little rust, its a 90-93 5-spd, I have some pics if you guys are interested.

I've noticed very few festy owners at this point have just one. There's a coupel on eBay right now for sale with others in the back ground. I have three at the moment, and plan to sell at least one, possible two in the spring. Just awesome cars!Because....45 MPG.

^^^Seems you're 100% right about that. Back last summer when I got "Madness 1", I don't know how many times I said, "This one car is all I want." Well now it's become 2 and soon, possibly a 3rd! Dang FDD!
Focustiva: Because I was told it was was impossible to fit a Focus bumper on a Festiva.

I've had 15 total. The most I've had at once is 5 or maybe 6. I have 2 right now, but one is traded off. I'd like to have 3 total. One BP daily driver, one stocker to rack up some miles, and some kind of race festiva. Maybe an autocrosser.youtube.com/neanderpaul 88 festiva LX w/BP G25 MR 5 speed waiting for wiring- 93 Festiva GL auto w/ air, waiting for B6t/G4A-HL - 98 Nissan Quest - 02 Mazda protege 5 wife's DD

Yup it's like a heroin addiction, you need to go to re-hab and be isolated from festiva's to get over the addiction :lol: i'll never go to re-hab

1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?
