          Is there a different label somewhere other than the door post?

          Have I slipped into a parallel universe?

          What exactly IS a face/palm moment? Am I having one of those, without being aware of it?

          HELP ME!

                  prior to 1990, only the month of production was listed on the door jamb sticker.

                    Ive got a teal 93. I bet its a youngin too.

                    As far as gearhead states, take into consideration weather. MT has ice and wet weather much more than the southwest. The winter here is actually drier than the spring. Arizona would be my pick as well, I've thought about it a few times myself. Ultimate gearhead is a baja calif or Sinaloa plate I reckon, but "I reckon" and Sinaloa don't mix well.

                          That's three days newer than the 04/08/93 that freshtiva posted!

                              Well..... GeorgeB.

                              You defintely have the newest Festiva mentioned so far. A nice photo would go a long way in reinforcing your claim. :p

                              Unfortunately, the title of this thread is "Oldest" Festiva. That, by my calculation, puts you... smack... in last place.

                              It's 5/87 to tie.....earlier to dominate. I promise to shut my cyber mouth when that happens.
