  • Number 12?

    So i am heading up to Minot ND to work for a couple weeks next monday, i decided i would check their local craigslist type website call bismanonline. Low and behold there is a festiva on there. I have already purchased 3 festivas from bismanonline searches. Its an 88 LX but i have no idea what the deal is with the paint. I looks as though someone put duct tape all over the whole car. What do ya guys think?

      peal the duct tape off and get a lot of wd40 to remove the residue

        Just keep in mind that there is alot of work ahead of you if you buy it, unless you just buy it for engine parts. I would agree with $300.

                      Lane pegged it:

                      Either that or you've found the very limited "Leopard Nosed Duct Tape Edition" Festiva!

                        If they painted it in duct tape, just guess what their "downhome" repairs consisted of.

                            looks like someone used two sided tape to put on vinyl upholstery, bet the whole car was leopard print at one time. Just a guess
