My Festiva build thread

[Walnuts]

driver door is gonna be completed on weds, pass on fri.

whats happening?
paint, door panels, door handle replacements, armrests, and window cranks. everything will be new and different.

Looking forward to it, you should put it on air.

awesome i love it. cant wait to see the bench seat in it.

The steering wheel is awesome. The car needs some tinted windows(I know you're doing it cheap, but tinted windows will be nice with no A/C)

honestly, i'm not a fan of tint.

it looks nice on other people's cars, but i just don't care for it.

and i think i'm not going to run a roof rack, so i'll build something in the hatch area and leave it wide open so people can see in. i like showing off my ugly interior

Any reason you cant just get the hubs drilled?

festiva hubs are unlike any other. they're just...different. i'm sure it's possible somehow but the thing most festy owners do is locate a Ford Aspire's hubs and brakes and it increases brake size and does the 4x100 conversion. i was close to buying a parts car with the hub swap already done but dudeman sold the parts car. and when i went to the junkyard the other day, the only aspire in the lot had it's hubs taken already.

i'll just rock the 12"s until i can get tires for the 14"s then run the mazdaspeeds when i finally get some hubs.

my other option is adapter/spacers that make it poke and change the lugpattern

[Lux]

and the mazdaspeeds aren't going on it anymore, the 4x100 conversion got sold to someone else.

so now i'm back to the 14" steelies or an alternative if i can find something.
