The storm I have been waiting for got here and still warm, no snow, just pouring down steamy rain...I put both snowmobiles in back, and finished up the red car to street legal. Wow, so nice to drive compared to the stock one. Washed it in the rain...put up an awning to expand outdoor lawn chair area. Put the 88 out in the rain and the 90 in the garage. Still cannot believe we had no winter!!Reflex paint by Langeman...Lifted...Tow Rig

Mock-up of some '90 626 parts for my Festiva S project. They'll be reconditioned, the handle pockets painted or dyed black, and the armrests/door pulls covered with black vinyl. Again, this is a mock-up, so only the concept is being applied. These parts won't be mounted to OEM panels, rather much nicer custom panels. Think BMW.
In case you're wondering, the armrests screw into the OEM location.Jack Byrd,

Still runs nicely though, and oil level never drops on the dipstick, but the block and transmission are an absolute mess.1991 Ford Festiva BP (Full Aspire/Rio Swap) (337k Miles) (Around 95k Engine)

^lol. At least where you are you can expect it at any given time. Here in Ohio we can get 60* and sun, 40* and rain, 30* and snow, or just plain drabby all in the course of 1 day. Take it all in for a week and you can see a 65* temp change. That happened here a couple weeks ago. I think I am gonna seriously consider moving again. Or not, and just talk about like 99.9% of everyone that lives in Ohio. LMAO
Oh yeah and I bought #10 yesterday. And finished prepping my gauge cluster and started working on my door panels om #9 today.Last edited by Gomez; 03-15-2015, 09:12 PM.-Bryant

pulled the air cleaner off and went to adjust the carb and Waaaaaa? no idle adjustment screw, you know the little one inside the small metal hole on the back.... first one ive ever seen like that. cleaned up the air breather box and rechecked all the plugs. pulled the driver front spindle off and took it to a shop for them to tell me that it does have to be press back together the cv axle holds it together....... ok I know where im not going back to. went to install shoulder belts in my 89 from my 93 oh snap the holes aren't there for the retractor in the molding over the rear shocks. that's all for today
