Upcoming upgrades:
I’ve got the bits but haven’t had the time to put them in:
- “bee-sting” antenna (do I install it front, back or middle?) I even have the antenna delete.
- Mazda 121 head and corner lights (trying to find the grille)
- Power windows
- Remote gas and hatch opener
- Flip up sunroof (not sure on this one, I really like 25horseplay’s power sunroof)
- New tie rods
- Currently rebuilding a cylinder head. It will be shaved about 0.010", sport a FMS performance cam all breathing through mild port and polish job. Might upgrade the valve springs while I'm at it.
- Just picked up a used "Motavator" brand header which will go on when I install the new head... or maybe sooner.
Other bits and pieces:
- August 88 Motor Trend with “the” Festiva article
- December 88 Car & Driver issue with the Festiva included as part of an “8 under $10,000” comparison test. There’s an article on the Taurus SHO in this issue too.
- 1992 Festiva dealer brochure. This one is from the US, I’d like to find a Canadian version
- Original owner’s manual, warranty manual, stereo manual, warranty card and a blank emergency key card in its original cover.
- Factory repair and EVTM manuals
