    Ordered a Intermediate pipe from Rockauto, and went to autozone and ordered a muffler. So next week I should have a proper exhaust on the car, not some 2" aftermarket deal that is rusted all to hell. Going to coat my new exhaust in exhaust paint, so then the only corrosion will be from inside due to condensation.

    With that attitude there will eventually be no more Festies left in the Rust belt.

    Was going to do it up nicer, but couldn't find the tub of bondo, and this body is going anyway.

    Rich Norman (the guy that started this site).

    He rally raced back in the early nineties. He made two of them. The other was destroyed in a crash.

    Kinda rare I guess

    Got my 2nd JY auto today along with a car matching green aspire front bumper(yay! no painting!). Now that all the parts are gathered it's about time to starting throwing them & see what sticks.

    You have been gone awhile I figure about another 120K since then! This year has seen very little mileage comparatively, and last years was down some as well. I cut my hours a little at work for 2011-2012 school year, and figured by madness6 I only had 735K. I got hurt at work ast January, missed a few months, and only came back part time, I would have to do the math since I took a pic of last years odometer, but guessing less than 35K in the last year. GOts to give five oh zone a chance to catch up

    Not really. It's very stable at any speed till about 145. It's been on there for years, so id have to take it off to know the difference

    Greg, can you tell how much difference that front splitter makes on your car?
