  • My New Festiva!!

    Alright, sealed the deal. Car is not in the driveway yet, but title in hand. Will be going back to pick the car up later this evening. I'll post pics then.

    1989 L, 220k on the clock. Everything works as it should. Took her for a test drive. Long enough the then owner thought I might have stolen it.
    Only one small area of surface rust in front of the left rear tire. Clear coat peeling in spots, gone in spots. No biggie there, been dying to try the $50.00 paint job. Needs a couple of things, rear struts/shocks for one, but other than that, she's good to go. Ebrake even holds. :shock: Oh, forgot to mention, has the red hockey stick down the right side, gone on the left side, and I'll need to replace the front speakers. Still, for $350.00, I'm happy.

    Woot. Forgot how damn much fun these little cars are to drive. And, it's black!! You thinking what I'm thinking?

                    I'll have you know I drove 2 green ones, one silver one ( that I really, really, thought about, but rust issues and the asking price turned me off) and 1 red one. But yeah, you kind of knew it was going to be black.

                    Thought briefly about batting this one up, but the Batstiva will be back, and I'm not sure I need two of them. Batman's gotta go undercover every once in a while.
