    It's been too long since the last time I was here, too many personal issues got in the way(i.e lost my house due to foreclosure). As a result unfortunately I had to part my $50 Festiva and my Mustang last year. However, I'm in the market to look for another one. I was thinking of buying back my car, but the person needs it more than me. I'll be keeping an eye cl for sure.

    Looking for another Festiva

    A '72 Torino sport, '99 Stang GT AND A FESTIVA?
    I feel for ya brother! I'm not that far away from the same fate...all it would take is a short run of bad luck. Hang in there. Good luck on finding a new Festy, sounds like you could use a break. Brighter days are ahead. Better to have owned a Festiva and lost it, than never to have owned one at all (or something like that).

      The health care and bank system are so crooked its not funny.
      Insurance is competing for legally required criminal activities.
      Our government doesn't like competition so joins with the above..
      Retired and disabled people foot the expenses..
      Prosecuting attorney's are friendly little angels by comparison..
      Welcome back to us down to earth honest folks!
      We are happy with less!

              The Gran Torino I sold to my brother in 2005 because he said he would do a better job restoring it. 7 years later and it's still the same. The good thing about selling the festy as I was able to help out someone who really needed it more than I, plus I see it everywhere I go . The Mustang was fun and all, but they lose alot of value and parts ain't cheap. I came across a festiva for sale, but it needed major work(seats down to bare metal, engine shot) and the seller wanted too much money for it($1200).
