  • Look what caught my eye while driving around town (big pic)



    The one in the front looks rotted to crap but the one in the back looked fairly solid, at least from a distance. This is only a few blocks from where I live.

    Looked like smooth taillights on both, carbies?

    The one in the front looks like it could be a parts car and the one behind it could be a decent fixer upper for someone...

    Also, is it just me or is 90% of all festivas red? I think we discussed this at ohiostiva last year.

      I have turned down streets I have never drove down before in the town I live in and found Festiva's parked like that, when I find them like that I get excited like I just found some buried treasure.

            Red ones

            I see very few red ones, I have pics of the Festuva Madness last october in Raleigh, close to 50 cars only a couple of red ones.
            I'd like to have that barn sitting in my back yard. You should go knock on their door, maybe that barn is full of Tivas??

              You JUST noticed them? I hope you're kidding. I've seen those for at least 2 months.

                        So me and my good friend "xaero_81" grew enough grapes to go look at these cars. The one in the front has 169,000 and is so rotted in the back that the mounting point for the rear beam is gone.

                        The other one however, only had....61,000 miles. And had only a little rust around the back tire. Registration expired in January.

                        There's never any other vehicle at the ancient house. Sometimes there's a light on inside. Kinda creepy.

                          Leave notes on brightly colored paper inside a clear plastic bag for rain protection.

                          After a month or so, go at midnight and take a medium. Ghosts don't need cars! They should be amenable to some kind of deal.

                            Didn't really think about it until now but we should have checked in the barn. Maybe these ones were parts cars for what's inside.....
