Festy for life or are you dropping out

[Studebaker]

Will be driving a Festiva for as long as I can fix it. But at age 55, I dislike working on cars more and more. Have two Festivas and four parts cars. So I'm fixed for a long time.

Been into Festivas since 2001. Can't see any reason to change at the moment. Drove my daughter's '91 today... makes me want to get my project car finished even more.

Lol Ian. I did the same thing this evening with Mom's 91 (my old car). She was having an issue and took it out for a spin to see what it was. Damn, I miss driving that thing. Back to the garage for me to finish some stuff I started today on my car. I don't think I could even sell the car for what I will have into it when completed. Labor of love I guess!!!

I'm not committing to 'life', but I'll probably keep mine as long as it's feasible.

Really don't have any desire to upgrade as this is the newest car I own ('93),

I've had a few, 4 actually. Currently have one and have way too much $$ into it. Its paid for, 36 bucks a month to insure, 40 bucks roughly a month for fuel, freshly painted, and after this weekend...new wheel bearings, passenger cv axle and timing belt/water pump replaced. Its a ton of fun to drive and I fit in it perfectly and I'm 6'2". I'm in.[ATTACH=CONFIG]19087[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]19088[/ATTACH]

The dark one was my first that I painted and fluffed up and the white is my current that I just painted.
Love em!

I'll probably stick it out for a while

Well, I'm thinking about letting mine go. It mostly sits in backyard cause I have a 2014 fusion and my pickup and when I go somewhere my wife usually goes too and she don't like the little car cause it sits too low to ground and if someone hit us it would not protect her much. I use to drive all time to work but I've been retired now for almost four years and start it up now and then and drive it a little. I still love driving it but since i don't much now, I'd hate to see it go to waste being all work I put into it and new windshield here couple months ago so I'll probably post it up when spring gets here and can come get it. Still runs great and only has 205,000 on it. So sorry, yea i'm sure I'll be leaving.

Kinda depends on when your "time" comes. If I die tomorrow, I guess I'm in it for life. If I live another 40yrs, gas powered cars will probably be illegal, LOL. I've owned mine for 15yrs, half of which it's been sitting in various stages of disassembly. At least it's not racking up miles or rusting out from driving in the salt. I've had thoughts of selling it and offers to buy it, but I plan to keep it. It's become more of a reoccurring goal in my life and a toy to play with every several years. With a little luck & motivation, I'll have it back on the street this summer.

Never really thought about it, but after owning my 90L for 25+ yrs, and having 5 others inc 2 bp cars, I guess I'm in it for life.

Life. I was gone for a bit, but I'm back and sticking with it.

[zoe60]

I've had mine about 10 years, it runs perfect, is fun to drive, and is of course, the life of the party! I can't see getting rid of it any time soon.
