          Rebuild them! Either a new engine or an upgrade! The car looks like it is in good condition still!

                        Festivas aren't just for driving in, saving gas, and impressing the women.

                        They're also for LEARNING CAR FIXIN' too!

                        That's what I'm doing.

                        GET TO WORK LEARNING TO REBUILD A HEAD.

                        Or the engine swap of your choice (B6 easiest).

                        '92L "Twinstiva" 5sp, salvage titled, waiting for repairs...
                        '93GL "Luxstiva," '94 B6 engine & ATX; needs overhauled
