      Hi my name is MONSOON and Im a Festivaholic! At first it was just a little beater to drive to and from work and then, SOB! It was little things that the car didnt come with like white faced instrument cluster and power mirrors. And now its developed into doing things like swapping motors, putting in power seats and windows. I cant SOB GASP SOB stop myself!

                Face it, you're all addicted.

                Luckily for me, it's just a "hobby"

                The rest of you need help.

                    Festies of course

                    ad.dic.tion\noun\: the quality or state of being addicted:compulsive need to chase down another FESTIVA i just saw and i'm off,somebody stop me.

                    ENABLER can you say Levitan,i gotta say we are having a blast driving many miles just to find a rusted P.O.S. or try to buy another that only made it 30ft before it shucked the trani,that was a great test drive.
                    An idea can turn to dust or magic, depending on the talent that rubs against it.

                                They may not work, but at least they'll make new Festivas shinier, and that "conscience thing" will shut up a bit when you're handing over money for your next fix.
