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

A few more parts I picked up recently. Found a domelight from an overseas model equiped with a full length "Funtop" sliding sunroof. I'm buying the US-spec optional sliding sunroof from a friend to go in the maroon '88, so this will be a nice addition to keep it all OEM inside. The factory Fun Top sunroof was pretty bulky looking due to the wind deflector and electric slide mechanism, vs the better fitting US-spec optional sliding top.




A Kia Pride brochure showing the Fun Top.





This site has a few pics of a Fun Top, you can see the dome light I have in the one of the pics.

A US-Spec sliding roof. These fit much flatter to the roof when closed and don't have the front wind deflector. They're also manual instead of electric.





I bought a set of front camber/caster plates, mainly so I can dial in extra caster. Caster isn't adjustable without these.




Also traded for a pair of 3.5 and 5 degree rear camber spacers; 3.5 for street and 5 for track/autocross.
