Re: '88 F*rd Festiva Autocross/Track/Daily Driver Build
The rear quarters needed more work to make the wheels fit in the rear so I cut the inner fenderwell and pushed the quarter out about an inch with a porta power, then plug welded a strip over the cut. That made the quarter buckle directly over the wheel, so I pushed it out and did some hammer/dolly stretching to straighten it out, then skimmed and blocked it straight.
Bodywork roughed in, SPI paint bought.
Now they tuck under with some camber added. This is right at full compression, it won't sit quite this low when its done.
