Good day for the festy!

[Charlie1717]

Well yesterday was a busy day for me and the festiva. Went up near Indianapolis to pick up the spoiler. Came home and my friends slave cylinder went out in his F-150 so he needed a tow. Got a lot of looks, people seeing the festiva pull a long bed F-150! Came home and gave her a bath and a nice vacuuming. 200 miles that day and still right around 1/2 tank




And I redid my sub setup to save some space.



I also got my tach installed


Works great. Needle is a bit jumpy but I'll pull the cable out and clean/lube that.

Did you install the Fender antenna, looks wierd on a Festy. And by the way your rear interior panels look good.:thumbright:

Hm no I did not install the antenna haha I've never even noticed that others don't have the same one. Weird..
Thanks! Krylon satin paint for plastic did a really good job. It's been about 4 months since I did it and it's still holding up quiet well.

Nice! :thumbup: I love the color

two antennas??

[Charlie1717]

two antennas??

What does everyone elses antenna look like?

It comes out of the driver side A pillar. You can pull it out a couple feet or push it in all the way. It looks like your car has a radio antenna delete plate.

[Charlie1717]

Yeah I just have a delete plate there. That's kind of weird then that I have one where I do haha

[wybnrml]

I'd say your car never came with a radio, and somewhere down the line someone added a radio and added the antenna to the fender.

[Charlie1717]

Weird I had no Idea that they even did that. It had a cassette am/fm stock radio in it when I got it. Weird well now I know! Ha

That's a very nice Festiva you have there. Amazing how you can tow a truck 200 miles and still get around 40 mpg! Not something those hybrids can even touch lol.

Btw, nice tach cluster.

haha no no the 200 miles was total for the day. I only towed the truck around 10 miles ha. But thanks! The Tach Cluster is great. It really helped with the towing too.

Haha Nice! People underestimate Festivas for how small the B3 is it's got some decent pep and torque. I even had a stoplight on a hill and had to start from a dead stop... no problem
