  • Sure sign of spring

    I looked out the window today and Freshtiva had come out of hibernation. :shock: As sure a sign of spring as the woodcocks making peening sounds in the wooly underbrush. I gave her the first upgrade of the year. Chrome door handles, chrome window cranks and a chrome trim ring around the window crank. (Thanks elcamino1 !!) I took freshtiva down and rinsed off the dust, checked the tire pressure, and went for a cruise through the country. The car hadnt been driven since the St Louis meet Nov 17th. Had a little engine tick when I first started it but it quickly went away. Spring is here , let the upgrades begin !

    You know fresh whenever you post pics of one of your cars. I get physically ill! :puke:
    They are just so tight looking, they are without a doubt 3 of the finest "stock" Festivas out there. If someone is putting together an all option Festiva yours are the ones they should be looking at as a guide. :thumbleft:

                  I thought I was inspired by you. :?

                  Thanks all ! Many more upgrades to come for freshtiva (and other cars). Now that Im doing some barter work on the side for a body man I have many plans.

                    No thats the original paint. Im not sure of the KMs but it has almost 185,000 miles on it. Its lived a pampered like but was a daily driver for 12 years. It has been mechanically rebuilt and runs and drives like brand new. Freshtiva was last Octobers FOTM. Here is a link.
