I've got a couple pictures to upload of Henry, our Zesty Festy... lol









Going to get either plasti dip or that bumper paint stuff and get that done sometime this week so they're black again

Be sure to get some red pinstripe tape too! That'll look like a million bucks on your car. The proper size is roughly 5/16" if you can find it, or 1/4" if you can't. Here's what mine look like if you scroll down a ways: http://www.fordfestiva.com/forums/sh...a-Build-Thread

Looks real NICE

[blkfordsedan]

Looks great! Get the bumpers painted back up and see if you can find some trim rings and center caps for the wheels. I love the clean, "no frills" look of the base model Festivas. Sometimes LESS is MORE!

Thanks everyone! yeah I like the way it looks... I was definitely thinking about the pinstripe... being a bmw guy, the e30 m3 is sex... and here's a prime example of the pinstripe on that



so to get a good look like yours Aaron would be awesome....

there are a set of RIMS at pull a part.... still 12s... so I don't know how I feel about that... as I do want to do the aspire brake swap in the near future.... but we'll see....

What I think is really cool too is the fact that the body lines (fender and quarter panel) are so similar to an e30 m3 : ), not as pronounced... but still...

Definitely like the pin stripe... where'd you get yours? something like Advance Auto or Pep boys have that?

[Prafeston]

That is one sharp looking Festiva. A little bumper restore/black will make it really look good!

[2ruble]

thanks!

[kumalaba]

very nice! if you want to stick with 12's get a set of the factory alloys.

[bobbyspider]

that thing is super clean and straight!! looks like it has none of the typical festiva dents. good find!

I need to move out of Ohio, and somewhere without salt.

Rusty cars are getting old real fast.

[2ruble]

lol... I've had my share of rust buckets just due to lack of chekcing first because it was such a good deal... there are two dents, there's one on the front bumper and one under the driver's door on the skirt from where someone didn't use a jack point to jack it up, there's a nice even punch up...

there is a set of 12" alloys with that car I got the trans out of... I think it's these (or a very similar design to theses)

I was thinking about getting them... but if I intend on doing the brake swap, I can't use these anymore correct?

[scitzz]

Looks great!

[kumalaba]

yeah if your doing aspire swap they wont work.
