Pulled of the rear bumper. Cleaned it up and got rid of all the dirt and crap in it. Primed it and realized I didn't have enough white paint left so I painted it flat black for now, until I buy some more white paint from work. It actually looks good black but I think I'll still paint it white.
Kartracer, that's an almost completely naked Festiva! (I still see suspension though)
The front struts were so rusty they fell out when I jacked up the front end, the upper mounts are gone. The struts were blown out, the back ones were welded where they broke the bolts off. The rear beam was even rusty, I did manage to save a nice ebrake cable. The front knuckles are rusty and the dust shields have fallen off, bearings and rotors were toast. the heads for the rotors are round. I didn't leave anyone anything worth a thing on that car. I may pull the rear adjusters for someone here that needed one and the front calipers for cores tomorrow morning.
Finished stripping today, I took a day off yesterday because I was sick. But the weather was nice today so I finished it all up and got the engine and trans mounted in the silver 92GL. Not a bad day overall.
