This Festiva is being sold for PARTING OUT because of rust issues.


The Festiva engine is a Mazda B series noninterference engine, (if the timing belt breaks, no harm is done to the engine).


It has 145,686 miles.


Has an automatic transmission which we never had issues with.  Since we owned it, we did have the fluid and filter changed in it.


We kept the oil changed every 3,000 miles


Gets approximately 35 miles per gallon.


Has A/C but we never got around to fixing it.


It has the original back compartment cover.

The tires are all good and still inflated, not flat.

All the locks work.

No cracks in windows.

We changed the calipers and rotors, but it has been sitting for 3 years.

The engine needs valve cover gaskets, they are oily.

The struts and springs on front are bad, axles possibly are bad also.

There is rust issues and mold on the inside.

Why we are selling it......

We had  this Festiva on the road for 6 years, with no mechanical issues.   But, something
developed possibly, electrical we couldn't seem to run out and find.  It got so that it would start and run fine, and then quit and would not start back up.  Our garage mechanics could not fine the issue.

We changed the air filter, pcv valve, plug wires, distributor cap, rotor, fuel filter, fuel pump, but the problem still persisted.  We now suspect that possibly the issue might be in the ignition control module in the distributor.  

After towing it to several mechanics, we just gave up and sadly one of the windows got left open without us knowing it and it got wet inside and got moldy.  We open the hatch to let it air out as much as possible and it seems to smell a bit better.

It does have a new battery but it needs a slow trickle charger to bring it back up.

We kept the car until now to take parts of it to keep our aspire on the road, but now we found another aspire to drive and will use the old aspire now for parts if we have to, so this needs to go and we also had to buy another car to which we are making payments on to basically replace this car.

This car is very rusty, especially underneath, but the engine, transmission etc are all good.

It isn't roadworthy, so you will have to bring a hauler to haul it off, even if it was up and running, it's too rusty underneath to trust out driving now.

Will load up more photos of under the hood later when I get the chance to take them.

Ford reveals all-new Everest SUV at Asia-Pacific forum [w/poll]

Thu, 13 Nov 2014

While the Explorer may have shifted from a truck-based sport-ute to a car-based crossover, Ford still offers buyers on the other side of the Pacific a Ranger-based SUV in the form of the Everest. And at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit in Beijing today, the Blue Oval revealed the all-new version you see here.
Previewed in concept form over a year ago and made specifically for the Asia-Pacific market, the new Ford Everest is designed to be more refined on the road and more capable off of it. Like the Explorer once was, the new Everest is based on a stretched version of the overseas Ford Ranger pickup. Depending on the specific market, Ford will offer the new Everest with a range of engines including a 2.0-liter EcoBoost turbo four and two Duratorq turbodiesels - a 2.2-liter four and a 3.2-liter inline-five - mated to a six-speed automatic transmission.
Earmarked to take on the likes of the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado (known in these parts as the Lexus GX) and the Jeep Grand Cherokee, the new Everest promises rock-crawlers even better off-road capabilities. It's got nearly nine inches of ground clearance, over 30 inches of wading depth, a 29-degree approach and 25-degree departure angles and a set of features including on-the-fly adjustable four-wheel drive.

Ford reveals concept trucks that ultimately became Atlas

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

The Ford Atlas Concept was one of the quiet success stories of the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, and now Ford has given us a quick glimpse as to how that creation came to be. Designers actually combined two early sketches to build the Atlas. One, called the Bullet Train, is a futuristic, aerodynamic creation, while the other, aptly named the Locomotive, features the squared off proportions we're familiar with.
Once designers settled on the truck's proportions, they began nailing down exactly which attributes they wanted the final design to have. The Concept's notched windshield originated as a forked glass roof that seamlessly transitioned into the windscreen.
Likewise, designers wanted to fit the truck's tailgate with a storage compartment for tools and a first aid kit, but settled on the dual-purpose step/cargo cradle. Interestingly enough, the concept's active aero shutter wheels actually originated in some of the earliest sketches. Check out the photos and slides here for a closer look.

2015 Ford Mustang GT Line-Lock Burnout

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

In this brief Short Cut, Autoblog's Steven Ewing demonstrates Line-Lock on the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. Accessed through an on-screen performance menu, the feature temporarily locks the front brakes to help you heat up the rear tires for better traction, as you would for drag racing. The result? A 15-second smokescreen.
