    mornin all. figured i might as well introduce myself finally. i joined a while ago and have been reading a lot of the posts on here. everyone on here seems pretty cool so far, i like how a lot of you jump in and help others with their issues. ive owned 3 festivas so far. still own 2 of them. thinking of cutting down to 1. first one was an 89 gl carbed 5speed that i bought off copart insurance auctions for $15. was hit in passenger rear quarter, broke quarter glass bent rear axle and killed the rim. fixed all that and installed a weber. second one is a 92 efi 5 speed cut down like a truck. has the back cab wall from a chevy luv sealing it. running 14" wheels with 55 or 60 series tires. both of those are sitting at a friends. 3rd one is the one i sold. it was an 88 L with ac carbed with 5 speed. i really enjoy these small cars. ill be posting my 89 gl for sale when i get some pics. its fully loaded. the only options i know it doesnt have are ac and the under seat tray. as far as i can figure out it has all the rest. im off for now.

                      An idea can turn to dust or magic, depending on the talent that rubs against it.
