Hello all.

Im new to the forums and just figured I would say HI

I dont have a Festiva yet, but I am looking for one and thought I would go ahead and try to learn as much about them as I can.

I have owned several other Ford products, mainly 1st gen (89-92) Probe GT's, and I currently own a '83 Mustang coupe with T-tops. My other cars include a 1984 Chevy Monte Carlo SS, a 1986 Nissan 300ZX Turbo, and a 1974 Camaro Z28 with a 496 stroker that has been my track toy for the past few years.

I look forward to learning about these cars, and hopefully I will find one to buy soon so I can start working on it.

Welcome welcome! You will enjoy the wealth of knowledge this forum offers. You will have to post pictures as soon as you get a festy! I saw your wanted ad with 2 grand you will be able to get one heck of a festiva!

2 grand will buy you at least 2 Festivas LOL :mrgreen:

[fastiva]

Yeah.... I was hoping to find one that has been swaped to a turbo set-up, or at least more power than stock....

Its goin to be hard giving up a 550HP Camaro and buying a car with 63 LOL

[Zanzer]

^^ It's all about the power to weight ratio mang!

[fastiva]

What does a Festiva weigh anyway?? 200lbs with a full tank of gas?

[Zanzer]

Mine weighed in at 1960lbs with me in it and a half a tank of gas on CAT scales and I weight 250lbs.

So prolly around 1750 with a full tank...LOL :mrgreen:

Although, I had the back seat and alot of the interior out of it at the time
