What have you done to your Festiva today!?

[lulu]

what did I do to my Festiva today? I bought it! A little blue 88 carby.

[Jim Rockford]

installed new rear wheel bearings and new rear drums, the old ones where almost rusted to pieces and the wheel bearing roared so bad I had to keep checking to make sure I didn't have mud grips installed in the back... Its a nicer smoother ride nice.. so quiet...

Looks pretty good, did you guestimate fender clearance?
Those look pretty close to some acura 215 35 18 I checked
out. Other than bolt pattern they looked like a go - only
on mod suspension of course.

Do you have the engine to move those! :O

BTW, great beer from your town

Wheel Option?

We had these fall into our lap, thanks to a project car ('71 Maverick Grabber) my brother bought. With a coilover mod, and a couple wheel spacers I think they will work.

I FINALLY got my head unit in, just didn't want to fight with the wiring (I ran the ground for the radio down to the bracket for the cubby, and i pulled all the wiring down behind the cubby so i could get the headunit in and out without fighting with a hug bundle of plugs) Redid some work on my speaker mounts since the were rattling a little, got it all worked out. Checked my mileage, got 32 this tank (I played with it a lot lol) Going to try to drive it easy and try to bring that up to atleas 35-7. I think when i get the 5speed swapped it will help with that, but i only do 60mph since it's all backroads (Maybe i should do 55 which is the speed limit and try to boost it more.)

Hopefully tommorow i will be able to find a piece of steel for the trailer hitch, also going to try to go to the junk yard and grab some parts from an escort, might start working on my boxes for the 6x9s.

Had to replace both lower control arms, again, after a close encounter with a curb. I'm getting good at front end work on the Festy. I rocked out the whole job in the shop in about 30mins. And another 15 on the alignment rack.

Sprayed my motor down with Dawn Power Dissolver. It ate my motor completely away. Just an empty engine bay now. JK, it ate all(most) of the old caked on grease & gunk off , no scrubbin'. Didn't hurt anything ,DISCLAMER: use at your own risk!!! But I tried it out on my sons Tacoma first, & his trucks still runnin'. Gonna have to do it again on mine,lots of old stuff in the cracks.
