I'm going to look at a 93 tomorrow. It doesn't look to bad upon my quick walk around. It's been a few years since I've been in the market. I've been told it needs a new front wheel bearing. I see it as needing tires, battery, cv joint(boots torn), and new head lights. It's an auto with "working" a/c. What else should I look at before I plunk down the asking price of $600?

In the 90's we had Clinton in office. We also had Bob Hope and Johnny Cash. Now we have Obama in office and we have no Hope and no Cash.

Rust looks ok. Life, kids, and Suburbans put the kabash on my hobby. I'm excited , and nervous. I've never spent more than $200 on a Festiva. I feel like a high roller!In the 90's we had Clinton in office. We also had Bob Hope and Johnny Cash. Now we have Obama in office and we have no Hope and no Cash.

Nice find! Welcome back.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.Comment

It's coming home. I'll be on my way shortly to get things notorized. It's feels funny driving the automatic. On the test drive I kept trying to clutch and shift. I'm sure I'll suffer my way through it.In the 90's we had Clinton in office. We also had Bob Hope and Johnny Cash. Now we have Obama in office and we have no Hope and no Cash.

You can still shift them, but that clutch gets you in trouble, haha. I used to shift my auto almost every time I drove it because I didn't like the shift points in D.Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege.

In the past guys have rebuilt the rack. You can add a bushing to the inside of the housing. Also there is new reman racks available. I'm sure someone will pipe up with a buying source to purchase 1 but they aren't cheap.
