What have you done to your Festiva today!?

[sketchman]

Nice.

Thanks!

I will rest easier though when I get my locking lugs tomorrow. Hopefully they won't throw off the balance of the wheels, because they are a bit longer than the stock lug bolts.

Please ignore the peeling cheap bedliner I put on back in November, I did it half assed and didn't even prep before hand. Going to alleviate that once warmer weather comes around and buy a random-orbital sander so I can give this car a good prep then paint.
But that will have to come after some of the body work I still have to do.

I'm not a huge fan of those wheels- mainly because they're cheap at Discount Tire and a lot of crappy cars around here have them (same for the MB5s/7s); but those don't look bad on your car.

I have seen the generic knock offs that look similar, but are usually brushed silver. I rarely see Konigs around here. Only time I have seen them was the other day, they were on a truck and they weren't Incidents. The most common aftermarket rims I see around here are American Racing, most notably the Outlaw series.

Daughters car might have lost a little oil...

Is it any wonder it leaked from day one? PO used silicone with the seal!

Switched out he drum and wheel bearing on the right rear of Blue from the parts car Red. I also cleaned out the nest in the air filter, but still smokes like a chain smoker.

I'm getting Blue ready for the trip to Marks house (zoom zoom) for the engine change on Thursday March 6th.

For a few days the tip on the muffler was vibrating. I kicked it off and now the muffler has a hole of course. Drone at ~1900, which is liveable as/is becasue I'm never there...A few weeks back I purchased from CL a low miles OEM 2nd gen scion xB muffler, and get this...same length if you hack off the bend. Get this part two...the oem festiva O/D slides inside the scion oem pipe once hacked off. Get this #3, the scion muffler is a round can so you can spin it around and use its hanger if you desire. Let me go outside and show you a 30 dollar no weld solution for winter/cheapness/repurposing20140228_205951.jpg

How's it sound? Looks great.

Might be up for that... Get a video of it... At idle and full throttle.

Sent from the depths of hell.

I've decided to sell my 92 GL/LXish 5 speed.....I have a local guy agreeing to buy it.....reason for sale: moving to Portland, Oregon in one month. So I'm gathering up all my parts and saying good bye to Festy ownership for now.

[bravekozak]

One winter up there, and you will be begging to go back to Florida and buy another Festiva. Did you tell the new owner about this site? Good luck in Portland. Don't forget to take an umbrella.

Doing nothing to any of our cars today... it's too darn cold. It's -29°C/-20°F with a "feels like" temp of -40°!!!!

Replaced another brake line on my Festie!! That is 3 so far. Probably going to replace the other front line when we thaw out.
