So I saw a gorgeous festiva on Craigslist yesterday and told my wife I wanted it. Of course we did not have enough money for it. So I sead something to my mother in law and my wife chimes in and starts talking about how her sister needs a car. She's in college and never got a car when everyone else had one in high school. So we went to look at it. Gorgeous no rust by the wheel wells or on the rockers. Ac, passenger mirror, rear wiper, map pockets, sport seats, alloy wheels, last bout not least spoiler. Inside of this thing is so clean. We drove it a few miles and it needs an alignment and something on the passenger side suspension is not Wright. So we are almost home with the car now. She will be making a user name tomorrow with plenty of pics. TominMO we might need some help kind sir.

Well taken care of Festivas seem to be a rarity, especially with a nice clean sport interior.Last edited by TorqueEffect; 08-24-2014, 02:41 PM.1991 Ford Festiva BP (Full Aspire/Rio Swap) (337k Miles) (Around 95k Engine)

Sounds like a plain tom.
I did not notice the grenades tell we were halfway home. It sucks. No festiva smell in this one.
