  • The Most Beat-up Festy Thread

    I'll get er started.

    Here's a sad little case I came across in Boise last week. I dug 50 #'s worth of scrap metal out with the slim hope of a seat tray. Of course not!!!



    FX
    Because....45 MPG.

          Did you get that swoopy mirror? I've been to yards in which they wont let you in the parts where they stack the cars.

            LR smoothie tail looks good, too.

            Kinda depressing photo.

            Unless I'm there with my tingling, greedy little fingers for some recovery ops!

              That's not a swoopy. That's the way more common 88-89 LX power mirror.

                    Absolutely. As well as the factory tach, center console, tilt steering, hatch latch with switch, cargo light.

                      Tilt Steering? Bah not worth the effort! Unless you really want bragging rights like. "OMG I got Tilt steering, now my steering wheel goes up and down a whole inch!" :p

                          If the tilt steering weighed a few pounds less, I'd go for it.

                          I don't think that's the case, though. It probably weighs a few pounds more.

                          Given that, if I were dirtystinkingfilthyrich, I'd have at least one Festy with "all the bells and whistles," including PS, "tilt" wheel, etc. in my fleet.
