Getting Started

[bemberg2]

Yeah I head all of you. Great Advice! Like I said earlier, I was into hondas and that crowd is very full of themselves. you guys are really helpful and i really like that. I'm thinking of getting the carbed 89 4spd from danville, il. i'd want to do a swap but am not sure if a carbed festy is the best way to start, is it worth it? i'd also have to tow it down to St. Louis, would a small trailer work for a festy (towed either by my civic or my dad's T100)

I think most people here would say start with a FI festiva (I wish I would have known that before I bought my '88!) A 6x12 trailer would haul it nicely or you could rent a tow-dolly from u-haul for about $50 a day. There is one guy here who flat towed a festiva with his festiva!

What I do is fix up one festiva while Im driving another festiva. That way there is no chance of cross contamination.

I have several options right now and was wondering if i could get a vote as to my best option from you guys? Thanks.

I personally would look at # 3. I dont like the way this guy parks his festiva on the rear bumper like that.
