Haha yes, new tires are coming. Im not completely suicidal. They're 13" metro wheels. That tire wear is from just 6 months or so of use. Didn't seem to have that problem until the BP swap.
Please tell me you are not driving the car with those bald tires on it at all now, let alone in the back! That violates every safety standard there is regarding tires and tire placement! We have had enough wrecked/totalled festivas lately, I'd hate to have to add another to the list.
Tire rotation came a little ahead of schedule. Makes it easy when half the car can be jacked up at a time. The amount of tread on the front tires compared to the rear is quite worrying. I spin them too much apparently.
Not so sure my engine is going to last much longer. It isn't running right, yet has full power. It doesn't like being beat on like it used to... sounds like it's going to blow up. There's a bad tick as well as a high pitched whining that is dependent on engine LOAD, its very strange.
Just waiting on the escort master cylinder to come in. Other than that she runs and moves on her own I still have some mounting brackets to make in the bay but no biggie should be done tomorrow sometime. These pics are before I have buffed the car so it looks good now, it's going to look amazing when it's done. But I don't plan on doing that until sometime after the Florida meet. But who knows maybe I will get it done. My buffing wheel let go after 4 yrs so I have to pick up another.... Lame!
Also it needs a bath I haven't washed it since its been home. It's never ending....

Sorry. I didn't pay attention to the year. It was cold and the yard was about to close.
It was square bodied. I don't really mess with MPVs since they have very few parts in common.
