I'll be passing thru Honolulu next Friday/Saturday.
Anything good going on?
I'll need a gearhead fix before spending a week on that boat. :boring:

Bill,

Darren, might need a hand doing an engine swap in his Firebird :).

Shhh, Tom, nobody here knows I tossed a rod the other day. :( Too bad, Bill, I'd have come down and picked you up in the 'bird if not. There's the monthly cruise night in Kapolei Saturday night at the Home Depot. If it's a sunny day, there'll probably be 150-200 nice cars there. I can still provide you transportation to/from Waikiki, no problem, if you want to check it out. :) Starts around 5pm until about 9. Maybe Jeff (HawaiianCamaro) will bring that sweet Yenko Z/28 of his down. :cool:

Arent there rust issues on the island?

Sure there are. One of the disadvantages of living near the beach is salt air. I don't get it where I live, so it's not near the problem it is for some people. I have a friend who lives across from the beach. Big screen tv's and refrigerators seem to only live a couple of years for him and his neighbors. They always buy extended warranties on big ticket stuff like that. :yes:

Hey Darren,

Congrats on the win tonight against Reno.
Quite the nail biter!

Nope Mike, sorry...made the HI cruise plans yesterday morning from work...the wagon is STILL In-op. :mad:
Look for Tim and his black/flamed S10 "Nomad" Blazer...complete with surf board...he's leaving for DAB sometime today.

Thanks for the offer Darren but the boat sets sail around 7pm on Sat. :boring:
Anything going on Friday night? We land around 3pm local but I'm not sure where we're staying yet.
I'll figure that out today.

Well, there's a little football game goin' on at the stadium, that's about it. Hawaii vs. Boise State. It kicks off around 4p.m. local time. Not much else happening that day as far as cars go, that I know of.

Yeah, we got a gimme today, we knew we had to get ready for Hawaii.
We will definately have our hands full next week.

Sorry to hear about the bird's engine. What are you replacing it with? We would like to spend some time in your neck of the woods too. It's cold and wet here. ANY only November.

You guys have fun. Wish I could help..

Something with a forged bottom end. I've been searching the west coast Craigslist this morning, there's a nice 406 shortblock in Stockton for $2k, but I haven't been able to talk to the guy yet. No luck finding a core here yet. My buddy that sold me the car is looking for something up in the Washington area to ship to me. He's a.k.a. Pontiac Jack, tells me of a stroker kit for a 350 that takes it to 383, makes 480hp, so that's an option if I can't find a good 400 or 455 block. 350's are a little easier to find.

Bill my perants what to go to Hawaii for a vaction. Who did you book with?
Any tips from the Hawaiian boys. Think they would like The garden island the best as they used to have a florist shop way back when. They are in their 70's.

And rest up Broncos are on their way for the game next Friday after todays warmup against Idaho State (58-14) :D

Shaun,
We've been to Oahu once and Maui 8-9 times over the years.
I booked a 8day/7 nite cruise yesterday..something different for a change. I booked it thru work...last minute super deal! Got upgraded to an outer stateroon with a balcony too. Must be a slow week...
Given the age of your parents, I suggest them setting something up with a travel agent.

thanks Bill:thumbsup:

the shaved ice is really good.
