  • Sad face......

    I haven't been to the yard to check this car out but it looks to be in excellent condition. Why would someone scrap it rather than sell it...

    Wow, that looks amazing! From the one photo it looks nicer than mine. Very clean too.
    Some people are just crazy. Like the bc guy with the nice green car who wont reply to my messages, or like the edmonton guy who has the $3500 carbed festiva and needs to sell because he is moving. Julian told him if he couldnt sell it before he moved he would give him a good price but not quite 3500 tryin to help him out. Guy said in your dreams..... [emoji23] like someone will buy it over a 20yr newer not beat up or rusty car that gets the same fuel milage... who would actually think you could sell a (relatively) undesirable 28yr old beat up and rusty car with highish miles, completely stock econobox for over half what it was worth new??
    Hopefully someone can pick this up before it gets crushed.

        Probably a grandmothers car and she passed away and the poop head grand kids don't know how to work on it or can't get it started because is has 10 year old gas sitting in it... Car looks Great.... Hopefully they didn't damage it processing it at the yard.

          You mean like punch holes in the gas tank with a forklift and hack the exhaust off?...
          The local yard here is pretty rough when ive seen em moving cars around.
          The edmonton pick and pull seems to try and sell a complete vehicle for more than they can get for the parts. Seen some pretty crazy prices on some nasty vehicles they were selling.
          Can always hope though.

            It annoys me when people just waste Festiva's like that. I see videos on YouTube all the time of people destroying their Festiva. Festiva's should be preserved.
