What have you done to your Festiva today!?

[bravekozak]

Cleaned my Festy. The week isn't complete unless it is shining like a mirror. Took her for a quick spin too.

I have bever taken a hose or a bucket of water to my Festiva. I have never ever waxed it ever. Maybe this summer, before I get all the pretty girls to pose with it.

Got my front coilovers on. Trying to work on wheel bearings as well.

[WTFestiva]

I made it into the troubleshooting phase of my wiring got the main wires hooked up to the key start now it should just be a matter of time before I have it running

Cleaned about 200 plus pounds of junk out of the Monte Carlo.

My god, he may be my friend but good god, that car was literally a rolling dumpster. LITERALLY

There was a shirt in the back seat that disintegrated when I picked it up to throw it away, I had to vacuum out the rest of the shirt because it got everywhere. I hope the seatbelts are not part of the seat, because if they are I am just going to replace the whole back seat, I wouldn't even let a dog sit on it. But if I can just remove the belts and throw them in the washing machine, then rent a rug doctor to clean the seats, I can get that interior at least disinfected. I also found panties under the passenger seat D=

[WTFestiva]

Yeah its likely just a little off. We didn't have to bend the bar, but it was too close for comfort.

Hey wtffestiva , I hope that's just the picture . Sure looks like it's to far to the left . I've never had to bend a shift rod like that . You Might have axle popping issue .

[drddan]

Got it on the right way now?! :mrgreen:
Ha! I did not know that the shifter on the G series was 90 degree from the Festy E series til I read your thread the other day. Seemed it was quite a shock to you too!

[WTFestiva]

Replaced the fusible links. Soldered and wired the disty on the bp, and turn signals, got our welding job fixed on the shift linkage and started wiring the starter but had soldering issues. Planning to stay the car Friday

[dalebwilson]

Yes sir.

[rmoltis]

Replaced these worn out suspension parts and the drivers side front wheel bearings. Steering and supension is now right and tight.

Looks like everything was in dire need of replacing lol.
gives you some good peace of mind.

Nothing, but I did get the title and plates for the 1998 Monte Carlo I bought off my friend.

He still needs to clean all his junk out of it, needs a new driver's seat since the back is broke. Using a couple old donuts to prop the seat up.

Nice having a car that actually has some power. Gas mileage will go down by about 10-15MPGs compared to the Festiva but helluvallot more comfortable car. Also has the bulletproof 3100 V6. But if it ever blows up, they can probably be had for pretty cheap considering how many GM cars are out there with 3100 V6s.
