          I was behind a truck like yours today! It was Fire-Engine red and had a big and I mean BIG chrome panel on the tailgate...it was pretty! Welcome to the site. Be forewarned though....the Festiva is an endearing little car and you may end up addicted.

            Welcome to the site.

            I find Festivas easy to work on (compared to a lot of other cars I've owned), cheap to fix and modding them dosen't seem hard. The biggest hassle is swapping to a stronger transmission. Anything but the stock (or Aspire) trans means making custom mounts. Even the Aspire trans could use a custom mount. To do that swap means using the Aspire front mount (you have to), but that leaves you with just two bolts holding the front of the trans.

              You'll find that these motors don't have compression ratios of 17:1 and higher!!

              The B series Mazda engines are extremely easy to work on, and cheap as well. I've pulled quite a few diesel motors myself. Mainly from VW's.

              BTW welcome to the forums!!

                Would it be too much to ask to see more pics of your truck? I always liked that bodystyle and the newer grille they had.
