  • When i changed my tires tuesday night i noticed a loose rear wheel bearing, today i picked up new bearings and turns out the nut was just a bit loose :lol: so i checked the rear brakes, almost metal on metal (new will go on over the winter) and put the drums back on and tightened up the bearing nut and all is good again

    1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
    2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

    1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

    If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

        that wouldn't be the B6 head that came off the block from madness would it? if so, how'd it look?

              • Put a new axle in and promptly put a hole in it.. wondeful. Even better I found a dime right under where the axle was. My sister must be laughing right now.. and I know exactly what she'd be saying. Brings tears to my eyes.

                • ... that car already has an engine in the back.
                  Is that an original SHOgun?

                  I steam cleaned my interior.
                  Nasty Festiva. My rear floorboard carpet kept coming out the color of Coke even though it looks grey..
                  5 brown waste water buckets and it looks so much better. The seat stains are gone and the carpet is noticeably cleaner.

                          • i sold my 93 gl today to a young girl that begged me to sell it to her at walmart last week. she asked if it was for sale & i said no, and then said if you want it 2500.00 & then she showed me an insurance check for 2300.00 & said will you take that & i said yes. she only had 20.00 cash for a deposit & i took it not expecting to hear from her again, today she called & said she was bringing the $ & she did. yhis car was a one owner car until in the last year when i purchased it for 800.00 delivered to my house, it runs perfect,has ice cold ac, & a reman. engine with only 25k miles on it. i really didnt want to sell it but its an auto & i wanted to do a swap but its just to nice a car. now i posted about 6 months ago 2 festivas one red one blue both 88 or 89s in a mans yard i pursued them for two months & gave up, icalled him today & he said i could have the blue one for 350.00 & its running with a 4 speed tranny. im planning some kind of swap. limited skills & no garage:cry_smile:
