I found a 1996 Aspire with 60K Five speed

It's been done to keep an aspire mobile in the yard.

Sadly, Dean won't be there to see it. If we even have one now....

Fear not Dean will be there in spirit!
And Festiva Madness IV will occur, it has already been discussed and some of the best people to do that job are already on it.
Many of the usual issues have already been resolved.

Glad to hear that news. I hope to pick up my Aspire Monday..DMV closed Friday for holiday.

Drove it home tonight. I can't get my pics to download..they are sent from Boost Mobile in zip file format and are too large to download on here....any suggestions?

Congrats on the purchase, sounds like a nice find.

I've always wondered about a reverse Aspire swap...bolting Festiva stuff on an Aspire.

Wonder if anyone's done that before? I bet it handles and brakes worse than a stock Festy lol.

I have a friend who lost his license for having a lead foot (and being dumb)... I was thinking that if I get ahold of a complete, roadworthy EGT for my swap I could bolt the b3 into the EGT and give it to him as a joke once he gets his license back.
Hard to get speeding tickets when your car does 0-60 in the time it takes to get wherever you're going.

There's a Fastiva, and then there's a...
Slowscort?
Slotege?

Check engine light came on after 35 miles, idle problem code 505 and no interior fan blower..but the idle goes up if i put fan on speed two.

[freshtiva]

Does it have A/C ?

[stevewl1164]

yep...that works even when the fan blower doesn't.
