added a "fourbangin'" decal in the back and checked out the clutch, its making a creeking/ squeeking noise not sure whats going , maybe help? it only happens on neutral when pressing the clutch down and hear it some what while driving and pressing the clutch down. the noise is sort of like what you hear when you go up creaky stairs.

Not sure what I'll do permanently yet. The whole thing needs done, but that's when it gets warmer later on. I was surprised how good it came out. It got dark just after I painted it, and was down in the 30s all night. It was soaked with paint too. Somehow it still dried.
This was just to not get attention in it. Don't need attention in a stock Festy.

I personally prefer flat paint on hoods. No reflection from sun into the eyes while driving. Too bad you didn't paint it flat blue with some orange pinstripe. It would have rocked.

I thought AutoZone/O'Reillys has the ford blue for the Festiva in a rattle can? Agreed, looks better than before!

Swapped my hood for a new one. Found a boost leak in my wastegate-MBC line. Washed my car. Deodorized the interior. Had some fun.

Had this rattle can of Rustoleum Royal Blue Gloss sitting on a shelf and a hood that was annoying me. I painted it in 40 degrees so it didn't lay right at all (fisheyes and runs all over), but if the color comes out anything like it looks wet, I know how I'm doing the repaint on ol blue. It's amazing how close it is. Pics when it's dry tomorrow.Last edited by sketchman; 02-24-2014, 04:04 PM.

Fixed my e-brake adjusters again. Winter in Ohio really takes its toll on 'em for sure. This makes the 2nd time since July I've had to do this. They were sticking really bad and I couldn't take the 30mpgs anymore. But, I had to wait til the weather broke since my garage is occupied by another Festiva. lol
Hopefully I get back into the regular winter mileage of 38mpg or so.

Went to leave my house and got inside the car and noticed my radio looked like it had came out of its spot a little then noticed my radio surround was moved as well apparently someone was trying to steal my basic pioneer head unit I am not concerned about the radio just agitated because they broke the clips and the part where the screws go to secure the surround in place. The funny part they were one wiggle away from getting the radio out but luckily they didn't get it and i was able to add some washer to get the surround back in place.
