Ladies? And gentleman, I present to you. The 1980 Ford Fiesta.
The magnificent 61hp 1.6L OHV carbureted engine and 4spd gearbox.
Picking it up next week hopefully, I've got some gray seats out of my old Escort that are in mint condition I'll probably throw in it, remove the bumpers, get some 14" steelies to replace the 12"s, fix whatever is broken, and drive that %^&. I might throw a Zetec in it if I feel like it someday, but I like it just the way it is.
I still want a Festiva, but this came up. I actually stopped because I thought it was a Civic. :banghead:
Anyways, this should be a fun project now that the Saab is out of the way. I can't wait to tear into it, I was told it ran well when parked a few years ago, but the plates suggest it's been off the road since '92. :|
