  • Mission Accomplished!!!-Old Red is Home!!

    Got my first festiva today, it's a 1990 L 5-Spd w/AC and 211,000. I bought it a few weeks ago but just now got it home. Then I fixed the grill (the clips were broken and it was held in by zip-ties!) Thanks for the clips Cubstiva!!
    Then I waxed it and cleaned the tires.
    Anyway on to the pics
    Woohoo!! It's here!!

                Thanks!!!!
                Yes it does run, I jumped it with my mustang to start it, it starts pretty quick, it just runs a little rough, probably bad gas since it had been sitting for a while before I bought it.
