  • New name

    With the 88L that I grabbed for a doner car, I now have to name it Lil Red and White. The only reason I used all the white is, the doors and there insides were in better shape. Plus the glass has a nice tint. I used the hatch because the boat that the former owner backed into at 40mph didnt do help at all. Everything else used/needed was misc interior and engine items. I grabbed almost everything I could. When I was done with the doner....there was almost nothing left. The wrecker chuckled when he took it away. Enjoy


    In the 90's we had Clinton in office. We also had Bob Hope and Johnny Cash. Now we have Obama in office and we have no Hope and no Cash.

      Lil Red -- cool, great ! I would call it a Purina Chex car !

      Really tho , glad you got her running, I still have the parts cars I told you of, but kind of need to keep around as I have the 2 other Festivas now running and maintaining them right now. There is another running parts car some school kid is beating around it, hope to find it some day for parts too. If you need, let me know what you might be looking for, will see if I can help a bit ? If you need anything more ?
      What color are you planning to paint Lil Red ? Sometime?
      Thanks for any replies, glad to see you got a running car now better :wav:

          ^^ I am being sarcastic. The amount of damage done to the rear hatch and the body, it wasn't just "bumped".
