    New Festy owner says hi

    New festy owner here. The car had light front damage. I picked it up for 300 and found a junk one with good parts for aother 100. The pics are before and after the body work. I haven't had time to paint it yet but I did have some factory graphite poly mixed. I`ll post more pics when I get her done.

    Edit: I forgot to mention the stats.

    1988 L 4 speed in graphite poly.

          Here are some more pics before anything was done. The car has 167k and it was all original. So far I've replaced the timing belt adjusted the valves and changed the fluids. This thing is a little beast. I was surprised with it's power. It had AC but the compresser bearings were shot and there was no line pressure so I did away with it. This car is really easy to work on.

                            I have a parts car that color.

                            If you were in Raleigh would be no need to paint it.
