    Attempted Festiva Smartcar??

    Went to the JY last week to find some parts, they had this festiva in there. Looks like they were just screwing around, I have never seen so much bondo in my life. They relocated the gas tank... to the passenger seat location.

    The rear spring were held in with wood, a couple metal brackets, and some spray in foam was in place for some missing body panels. Very creative to say the least, I sure got a laugh out of it!

      Not a bad idea but horribly executed.

              An idea can turn to dust or magic, depending on the talent that rubs against it.

                  That was about the only thing on there that was kinda cool. They look decent in the picture but they hacked them in pretty bad

                            Yes, it looks pretty poorly executed, but you have to give them credit for trying!

                            The gas tank in the right seat area...is so WRONG! Hahahaha!!
