I had a friend that had a 77 or so Fiesta. That little piece of shit broke a 
rear
sway bar on a highway one summer day. It got to shaking like a fat, um 
"calorically
challenged" woman running for an all you can eat buffet. Limped it to a wrecking
yard some 10 miles away, bought a new bar, and changed it in the lot.
The Festiva is a later car, like the 80's or something.
