[GenevaDirt]

[GenevaDirt]

some pics of the roll cage (going to be for sale ) and the rear Capri suspension in the car....going to swap it over to my car I hope

[Hot_Wheels]

looks good willy. buy some por15 and start painting ecerything under neath, and get some rattle cans for the roll bar, made my car look a 1000% times better.

This one is headed for the JY once I get all the parts off of it. All the swap stuff is getting put on my DD that happens to be rust free....

Not as bad as the pics make it look....just some surface rust from sitting in the guys garage. Should clean up just fine.

Willy it looks like its all surface rust, no need to junk, just get a wire wheel and some por15 it will seal it up and good as new! if you try swapping to another body your going to have to have to make frame for the rear end to bolt to like the previous owner did. It looks to be a nice cage too. the cage will help keep the car rigid.

holes rusted through in the rear quarters....bottom of doors...dented fenders....roof caved in a bit...interior completely ripped out.
My car is rust free and ready to go except that I have the engine ready to pull and swap. The rear part of the frame just needs to be boxed in for the rear suspension. Front struts and XR2 hubs will swap right over.

Not putting a cage in mine...going to sell it as well as the rims and tires.

Whats that wacky rear suspension ??

Whats that wacky rear suspension ??

independent rear discs out of the XR2.

[Damkid]

I was wandering when you were gunna start on that lol

BTW who was the previous owner who did all the swaps to it?

[PhoenixSHO]

Thats a hell of a job to to all this to have the independent susp.


I hope it was worth it.

[Flyin4stroke]

And disc rear brakes would be my motive. Just for looks mostly since a Festiva stock drum is tiny!

[kumalaba]

get busy, good luck & i will see you at fmv!

I hope it was worth it.

it was already in the car I bought....but I will be putting it into my car once I get the motor swap done.
Does not look to hard to me....the Festy frame was boxed in on 3 sides and the holes were tapped it looks like. Then the rear end was bolted in. Rear discs and independent suspension. Plus it has Capri lowering and adjustable struts all the way around.

First step is the motor though....then the fronts and then the rear. Then the NOS.....hehehe.

[PhoenixSHO]

Oh I know it was already in.

Good luck with it , and keep us posted.
