  • What have you done to your Festiva today!?

    Just rebuilt my calipers and ordered my driver side axel. Started clicking on me today so I should replace it soon

    • Wolfgar, PMing you with radio wiring info.

      Today I moved my cars around. The 323 still runs, might need to put an exhaust flex pipe on it and drive the dang thing.

        Broke a head bolt off in the block and by miracle got it out with an easy out.

        • Found out I must be the most anal person I know.

          You guys pop these engine swaps in like they are nothing.
          Me... I am still working on getting the mounts PERFECT.

          Sold the Capri parts car for $200. Am much happy.

            Got lots of extra head bolts if you need any.

                  • Got my new Weber carb and it's beautiful. Wish I had time to work on it before going to Charlotte Autofair next week.

                      • Power sprayed the car. Took off all the dirt that's been there since I got the car, and even after washing it many times. Power spraying it also took off the hockey stripes that were on the car. Looks much better. Degreased the engine and engine bay as much as I could. Put in my new HID ballast, the third one may I add, and it is no good. Keeps making a buzzing noise when I turn them every now and then, and sometimes it wont turn on (only the passenger side.) Really tempted to go out and just get a stock replacement bulb, but the brighter bulbs.

                        • Finished up stripping the black car




                          The rear beam is so easy to remove with the car on its side. I didn't feel like jacking it up and crawling under. Empty shells are quite light.

                          • That's not stripping. When I strip, the only wheels I leave for the tow truck are two spare tires on the back. I also cut out any body sheet metal I need. Hold it! You forgot to remove the headliner.

                            • The headliner didn't want to cooperate.
                              And I don't have anything to cut body panels out.
                              I have removed about all clips, plugs, bolts etc than I can get out of the shell.

                              • Man, I would like to have that shell......

                                Rust free cars getting stripped down and scrapped, while we are running rusty ones up here.
