Hawaii Lowriders Car Meet

 This is a late post from last month's Hawaii Lowriders Meet at Pearlridge Shopping Center. Life right now is just so hectic that I can't keep up with things I need to do. As you may or may not know I haven't bee up to date with this blog. Every now and then I touch up on it but not on regular enough. My apologies but I promise to provide content when ever I can. 

This car meet is blessing for me as I also haven't been in the mix with my beloved car culture meet and greets or cruises. I think im going to frequent many of these from now on as I usually have done in the past. I was really active in the car scene back then but like everyone else, adulthood kicks us in the head and occupies our time. I hope that I can keep up this time. So wish me luck and I hope to see you all in the coming events and "ride safe"

For now enjoy these pics of last month's meet.

Big mahalos to all in attendance:

Timeless Classics Car Club, Supremacy Car Club, Childhood Dreams Car Club, USO Car Club, Lowriders Pride Car Club, Unity Car Club, Spellbound Car Club, Old Image Car Club, Others Car Club, OSIxHI, and solo riders.

My apologies in advance if I missed any clubs.

Here's a couple of sick 1/10 scale RC hoppers/car dancer from Redcat Racing & Jevries operated by 2 of our very own Hawaii car enthusiasts. One of which is a well known model kit builder and painter, Ken from Childhood Dreams C.C. 

Until next time... Ride Safe.

#ilovecorvettes

What can I say about this beauty? A LOT!!!... You have to understand that a 1980's Red Corvette (cue in Prince's "Little Red Corvette" song) started my obsession with cars and Corvettes. 

Now to this latest beauty and Chevy did not hold back. Chevy brought everything out and threw in so much style. 

I just can't wait to see one up close and personal. I am also waiting on owning a scale model of it also since its the only thing I can own of this beauty.

Good on GM and Chevrolet for creating such a magnificent work of art with all the bells and whistles. I cannot wait on premium models and the Z06 models. I am also scoping the internet for all the customizations that may be available and concepts. 

I urge you all to check out this beauty and give it a chance. It may just grow on you if you haven't given the Corvette a try. It will definitely make you love the Corvette even more if you've already been a fan. 

Just imagine the next models and redesigns in the coming years. Its very exciting.

This is so cool except for the front mounted distributor which to my knowledge was never on Chevrolets. It is on the Buicks, and Oldmobiles. As a car nut and gear head you can't deny the coolness of little engine.

Here's a dope short vid of my 1/20 scale Ford Explorer made to look like a Chevy Blazer Action Static truck dancer in action. This vid was shot and edited by a very talented friend of mine that goes by Choppetto Bikes.

Enjoy.

Bike Show, Swap Meet, and Model Kit Exhibition

This past Saturday was Childhood Dreams Car & Bike Club's Bike Show and Swap Meet with a Model Car Hop Off.

When I got there it was full of the finest bikes from all makes, and models. There were even pedal cars, strollers, pull carts, and model kits. Many of Oahu's well renowed clubs were at attendance as well as independent builders. The level of craftsmanship and innovations that the builds had was incredible and the you can really feel a deep appreciation for the amount of work and $$$ that went into the builds. Im not just talking about the bikes either. The pedal cars and strollers were a force to be reckoned and the amount of engineering that went into the model kits as well was mind blowing.

This is the kind of show that I love. You know the ones that different from the "Car Shows". I like all kinds of spices in life and this was one of them. I like to bring out the other aspects of building and shows. This was definitely a show to attend, participate, or just simply admire. Hopefully you will get to see this again next time around and maybe even participate in.

In the mean time, enjoy these flicks and vids of the action. 

Special thanks to: RI Autoworx, Ash, Alan, Childhood Dreams C.C. & B.C., Supremacy C.C. & B.C., Eki Cyclery, The Hobby Company and everyone that attended.
