Aloha, I have been lurking for a year or so. This site has been a wealth of information. I am now making progress on restoring a 1988 z52. Possibly a greenwood car. As of now I am almost done with a rear suspension rebuild and poly conversion. New shocks etc. Well hope to meet some other c4 guys maybe do a cruise in a month or so when I'm done with the front. Aloha

My daughter and her family lives in Waikoloa Village. We always visit Hilo when I'm there.
Waikoloa is nice, especially because of the resorts and condos there. They're building new stuff. My older sister was married at the Hilton Waikoloa. Have had some great times there! Man....some great times!
Waimea is home to one of the only Ferrari's on the island. It is a yellow F360.
Yeah Kona is like what I would imagine living on the moon would be like, only with O2
Hilo is the exact opposite. Just rains and rains and rains.
There are a lot of C1-C3 Corvettes just sitting around on the Island. Most are in Hilo and closer to HPP, Keauu, etc. In fact there are a lot of classic cars rotting away in Hawaii, not just Hawaii Island. If you have time next time, just do some free stylin' and get "lost" and I bet that you can find some pretty cool rides within a 15 minute radius.
Anyways, pretty exciting to talk to someone who knows something about a part of my past.
Also, I lived in town (Hilo) being Hilo Intermediate School on a street called Alae Street. I also had a ranch in Ninole out on the Hamakua Coast. By the way, you ought to stop by the post office there, at mile marker 21 (coming from Hilo) as it is the nation's smallest post office.
Also at mile marker 8 (?) Baker Tom's Malasadas is like one of the best kept secrets. It is right off the road. Oh man, they are so ono! If you haven't, you ought to stop by and try them out.

Yeah, the West side of the island is pretty lava covered but has some great areas to visit and great beaches. I do like the tropical areas which are beautiful. We stop in Waimea frequently. It reminds me of Waiainae on Oahu where I lived as a kid. Old style Hawaii.
Waianae isn't what it used to be. the homeless have ruined it for the families who want to enjoy makaha and Yokohama beach. Nanakuli is even worse. It's sad. I still remember the good old days though...

That sucks. It was a nice friendly style little town when I lived there

Yeah Waianae is arguably the "Compton of the Pacific"....
