  • I'm new and just got my first festy

    I am new to the site .. and festivas .. just bought one last monday and found this site
    i went to look at my lil festy and took it for a test drive and had to get it, of course
    $500 '93 L ... the lady said it had a rebuilt engine so i don't know what is in it atm ... it is sitting at my dads until next friday when i get paid (gotta get insurance and tag/title Xfered over b4 i can drive it) the CV joints are going and prob needs shifter bushings replaced ... other than that runs pretty nice

    I am not mechanically inclined at all, but my GFs dad is so i will be asking for help from him and you guys ... i have been browsing the site for the past few days ... i live in Leesburg, FL about an 1.5 - 2 hours north of orlando for those of you who live close by and want to lend a hand

    i look forward to getting to know you guys and learning to work on a car for once lol

      Advice for new a guy (I know I'm still new myself lol) read the rules in the forums and use the search button before asking in a post. People here are very helpful and know these cars quite well. If you own a festy you've found the right site

      P.S Watch out for Ogrekhan hes well..... you'll see.

              Welcome to the site.

              You know these little things are addictive, right?

              Worse than crack.

              There's no known rehab program either.
