Don't laugh guys I bought this ford festiva for gas milage. Well the guy I bought it from tried fixing the window frame on the door where it was cracking himself. Attached ImagesLast edited by hytekredneck; 10-13-2008 at 09:12 PM. It's not what you can buy, it's what you can build that matters
Reply:here's the fix on the outside i did, i thought i had a before pic of outside but can't find it. still need to take pics of the inside fix. here's pic of car before i painted it, just cant drive an aqua blue car around. LOL I used the tig on it and added a little extra filler in hopes it don't crack again. I was averaging 44mpg before I started to repaint it. Not bad for paying $600 for it Attached ImagesLast edited by hytekredneck; 10-13-2008 at 09:11 PM.Reason: words It's not what you can buy, it's what you can build that matters
