That is a great looking truck, would like to see it sometime. I have been thinking of turning my 88 into a truck. My sister lives in dacusville behind the old O'shields junkyard. i live in Berea about 15 mins. from dacusville.

I'd be glad to let you see the car. I live near the go-kart track, work in g'ville every day

He had a few of the cars? As in multiple Festivas? Does he still have them? Lotta guys looking for parts from them.

We had 20 or so at one time, but down to 3 running, and 3 parts cars. I'd have to ask pop if any for sale or not.

I hang out at Kosta's restaurant on highway 253. It's beside the Dairy Queen off of cedar lane road. I was telling George, the owner of it, about your truck this morning. I did not notice you were from close by till tonight.
I live off Sulpher Springs rd. on Watkins rd.

Excellent work. He has raised the bar for festy trucks! One question, How dose the tailgate latch? Do you use the original handle to open it?

The tailgate uses the origional latch. You pull up, then it rolls back on two bars you can see in one of the pics.

I guess the best place would be to come by my work. we're doing a renovation on a house on 15 warner street. Out of town on Augusta, and turn left onto mcdaniel ave (back towards the zoo). warner is 2nd st on right. I'm there mon-thurs 8-5:30. come say hi. Jake.

I saw dacusville5's blue festero truck today up close. It is beautiful. Has great workmanship. The way he has the tail gate set up to work is ingenious. Wish i was capable of doing such good transformation of a car to a a truck. It looks like it came from the factory as a truck. He says the other one is even better as the blue one was the first.

I got a couple more pics of the festero.[IMG][/IMG]

I'll bet your Dad could make some spare money making a couple more of these and selling them! Or converting one for someone.

Yeah I think so too.
thanks
