  • Introducing myself

    Hey yall,
    I just purchased a 93 festiva...going to do a run through of it...plugs, wires, oil change, all new engine gaskets, brakes tires...the usual when you purchase something.
    I am looking to upgrade it just a little bit, nothing extreme, not going for any speed records, but would like to upgrade it just a bit. please feel free to send any sites, and parts your selling, anything really because im pretty open to anything.
    My name is Ryan and on top of the new purchase of the festiva i have a focuz zx3 that i built to take turns, tightened suspension, lowered, body bone stock engine stock, all i wanted was a car that handled strongly. I also have a 2006 dodge ram built to drag race and is an absolute blast. I reallhy want this car to be a driver for work, and something i can just have a little fun with on the side.
    thanks for reading

              Welcome! Where are you located? That Festiva looks like a prime example of our cars. I would love to see pics of your other cars.

                        The red polishes up really well. Shouldn't need paint.

                        My car when I first got it:


                        After buffing and waxing:


                        If you're afraid of hurting the decals, just start with a wax. Or maybe buff only the roof, hood, and fenders.
