I'm festiva-less so I can't join in on the fun in this thread

Oh Geeeez. I bet you could sell those with GTX's on there.

You are still living the dream though. I've heard that you're doing a b6t swap into one.

Angie & Charlie, the wife would like to know who made the Festiva quilt.

He should do a festiva rear suspension swap into his 323!

Angies mom is a second or third generation quilter. Ang helped by making the pattern and providing pictures of Festivas to inspire each panel. The quilt took them several months to make and they presented it to me a couple weeks ago. I love my Festiva quilt.

Charlie, you are one lucky guy!

That is correct, hopefully within a few short weeks I'll be starting on it... gotta get my wagon finished up first though which is getting very close

No thank you, more work then I want to do, plus it already has independent rear suspension lol

You apparently haven't been following some recent arguments around here lately [emoji14]

Actually if you talking about the video a guy made (seen it on Facebook) showing the flex in the trailing arm of the festiva, I have no arguments there, I just have no intentions of installing a festiva trailing arm into my 323 :lol:

Yeah, you can't really reap the major benefit of a trailing beam unless the car was designed and built with one to begin with. The BF chassis is already reinforced for the multi link Macpherson strut suspension, which requires a lot more reinforcement than a trailing beam. It's easier to just buy a Festiva and enjoy both cars as they are.

Damkid, clear your board, come down here and buy a festy to get an Arizona tub (and have a bit of vacation )
You guys have all the unmolested interiors and rubber.
And while your down here, have a go at our racetrack!
PS. Still have that 6 speed you wanted.

Nice to see the pictures, and know there are Festivas being enjoyed out there still. Mine have been sitting too long, but I will have 100 miles of enjoyment Friday to remind me of what I have been missing. Can't believe Damkid is without a Festiva at least waiting for a swap of some kind!

[Damkid]

Dragonhealer - with all the projects I have on the go, it may be a while before I'll even be ready to buy a 6 speed

m715 - technically there is a festiva awaiting an engine transplant in my garage..... Zman's festy is getting one of my B6T's lol
