Re: '88 F*rd Festiva Autocross/Track/Daily Driver Build

Got a lot done and not a lot posted...


I swapped out the interior from a nicer/higher optioned LX. This included a tilt column.






Pulled the original 1.3.








Bought a pair of 45mm Dellorto DHLA's.




Cleaned the engine compartment.




Transfered the front bracing and radiator support from the mock up car to this one, and made lower radiator mounts. Radiator is aftermarket for a Honda Civic.








First test fit in the car.




Heated and bent the header tube to fit the flange better. Also cut out a pie shaped piece from the end of each tube to angle the bottom of the header back away from the radiator.




Current state. Need to hook everything up still, but it's in.
