Celebrating the life and death of a Festiva

[ENEMY_]

Died at 260k

They are not dead unless they are totalled, burnt, rusted in half, or owned by my neighbor Dwayne.

[JPT]

That's dead?

[Damkid]

Wow, you sure give up on festiva's pretty quickly

[ENEMY_]

It was a cool picture, not mine that was the title.

[htchbck]

I'm confused... ... that looks very much alive to me?

[Safety Guy]

Parts may "die," but if the Festiva is not rusted or bent in half, it can go on living. Just replace the dead parts!

Here ya go; dead or alive?:



Aqua was merely awaiting her transplants, as you well know!:



There have been even more striking examples from other members, too.

I'm not sure what this whole thread is about, if a festy is gone or not? But if you have a festy body with a sway bar and rear axel I'll take it off your hands if the price is right, don't need much else.

You know what would be a cool sport?

Get several teams of four people and give each team an identical Festiva to take all the way apart and then put back together again. For time, and to see if they run as well as they did.

I wonder how long it would take? I'd guess maybe three to four ten hour days for a good team.

I'm talking every part, every sub-part, etc. that could be done by a normal set of tools on assemblies that could go back together without being redone first.

Oh, and label each part with the correct name. That would look better in pictures!

safety me and my brother in 2 ten hour days could tear apart and re rebuild a complete festiva. Add shadetree to our team and could prolly do it in under 24 hours no problem.

That looks like the festiva on EBay from Los Angeles

This thread is pointless without details
