You meet the nicest people in a Festiva
I went out today to talk to a guy about a 5speed for project TroubleMaker. I got lost on the way out, then got stuck trying to turn around on a county road. After I finally got to the guys house we talked about the trans and afew other goodies. Well one thing led to another, and I'm still not too sure how it happened, but I bought two more cars. One is a beauty of a MetBlue LX. One is a red parts car missing alot of parts and with a little front end damage but may be great yet. TroubleMaker is now going to be the MetBlue LX with plenty of options, I'm going to inventory all the other parts as soon as I can. I'll have pics if I can just figure out how to use this darn camera.

Nice stuff! Sounds good. Well, the first time I drove a Festiva, it was out of kindness from the owner. I'd gone to another city with my buddy (same guy got my project Festiva from) and I needed a ride back home cause he was gonna stay longer. So, his buddy lent me his Festiva to drive back home in! I've still never met the guy, but I'd like to thank him. haha I quite enjoyed that drive back too! I also had someone in town I'm a Festiva gimme a thumbs up for driving a Festiva. hahaComment

Ok here are some pics
Thats actully the Teal car I am driving right now (camera test)
This is TroubleMaker.
Anyone need a cluster?
I still don't belive it...
No driver side, but I should be able to remedy that.
Still waiting for the guy to call back and say APRIL FOOLS!!!Last edited by KingFish; 04-02-2009, 01:40 AM.Going old school...
