  • Picking up a FESTY in NJ!

    Well guys I'm getting ready to hit the road in order to pick up this blue beauty in NJ. I'm more excited than you know! Its been many months since I started looking. I came across this car the night before I was scheduled to have a hernia repair surgery! The man was super gracious and said if I wanted the car he wouldn't sell it til I was able to make the trip. I am taking 2 friends with me in case driving becomes too uncomfortable for me right now. Here are the pics I have of the car so far! SUPER STOKED!!

                    Good luck. Check under the car for rust. I grew up in Jersey, and the cars rust from the bottom up.

                      There's not much better than the excitement of making a trip to go get the car you've been searching for a long time to find. Be safe and Have fun!

                        I like that color, it matches the GL blue striped seats perfectly!
                        Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.
