    Once i get the mechanical and quality of life issues dealt with (no radio, broken sunroof latch, the sewing machine lifters, oil leaks, sloppy shifter etc) I'll take a look underneath an try and nip any cancer going on in the bud
    If your dailying it the $50 for a radio with bluetooth/hands free calling is worth it i think! Check out craigslist for nicer used radios cheap.

    For the rust once you get time i have a youtube video on rustproofing a festiva. Its long and boring but it goes over what to use/ not use and specifically where they need to be rustproofed, how often, how long it takes, why you should do it, why they rust in certain spots and all that good stuff. The description has a bit of an index for the video.

      Factory sunroof that came with the sport appearance package afaik

      Unless I need to look up maps my phone is airplane mode while driving, I have a pretty solid cassette collection though so I'd prefer a radio with a tape deck haha.

      I might be able to gorilla glue the old handle back together, it's still with the car just broken.
