    Here's his entry again

    My story starts years ago. My high school days. I had an 93' aqua Festiva. He was mighty and proud and stood the test of time and of a teenagers driving habits. But unfortunatly he was taken from me in a accident.


    With out a house or even a job, as I had just moved to a new city, I had no where to keep and fix him and so it was.

    Years passed and so did the cars. Celicas, Toyota trucks, but none felt right. I sold the truck with nothing to drive more or less hopeing fate would take care of the rest. And it did.

    With 148,000 kms I found the car I wanted, a 1993 aqua Fesitva.



    It was my old car reincarnated. It needed no work........nothing.
    It has been a year almost to the day that I have had this car and it has changed quite a bit.

    First it was a spoiler.


    A console.


    A boot for the console!


    The bug spread and soon more and more mod's came!





    AND MORE!!!




    Some 13's!


    Extra gauges(volt and vacuum)


    And grille mods and complete mazda rebadgeing


    He has met other festers along the way



    Even has a new brother!


    But one thing is for sure. Fester II is the best car I have ever had.

    And he wears his sticker proudly!


    I'd like to thank all who continue to support the site and have given me inspiration and ideas.

    I end my story for now with some 'glamour shot's. But remember this story is far from over. There is many more mods I plan to do, not limited to either an engine swap or build up, lowering springs, rear wiper, sway bar, various body strengthening...and what ever else i think of.




    1988 323 Station Wagon - KLG4 swapped
    1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
    2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

    1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

    If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

                          love the blue!

                          I noticed the bumper color went from grey to black; and other Festivas in a photo have a bumper the same color as the body paint.(white in one instance) Are these phenomena from year to year, or custom?

                          Same color as my Festiva BTW, my favorite for the marque! Nice luck finding yours.(like the <fordfestiva.com> sticker; I'd stay away from them otherwise...ha, ha!)(managed to stick mine on backwards on the inside of the rear window, the ff.com one...sort of an underground stealth look?)
