    Finally got an Aspire!









    Scored the Aspire that was on Craigslist. Originally, the owner would not separate it, from the other two that he was selling. I left him my name and number (just in case), and he called!!! Apparently, the buyer of his two festivas did not have any interest in the Aspire. Silly Rabbit!

    The thing has nearly-new tires, and a full spare! Engine status is unknown (high-mileage/5-Spd), but I view that as bonus-prize material...

    Cannot wait to get started with the swap. Thanks to all of you, for your posts, pictures and guidance! Hopefully, I will not have to pepper the forum with too many questions.

    Cheers!

    Sweet dude congrats. I should be getting my Festiva and Aspire here shortly provided I sell what I need to or the guy decides to do the trade. Good luck with it and post pics.

        Deer strike. Interior is shot, as well. Gonna strip her, and cut up the frame for scrap. The red 'stiva next to it will eventually meet the same fate...

                  I did read, he never said where, I was just asking if they were the ones that were in Bevier, MO because those were less than 15 miles from me and I was just wondering..

                    Sorry for the delayed response... Fred: yes, that was the Bevier deal, that I had posted from Craigslist. Nerd Racing: Rear end looks decent; PM me, and let me know what kind of pics that you need. I'm sure we can work something out.

                    Cheers,

                    Scott

                      Cool, too bad we couldn't meet when you picked them up! Always fun to meet a fellow festiva addict We should have a mini-meet sometime.
