Default Aloha!

Wassup gang. It's been awhile since I've been on the site and I just wanted to drop a line and say Aloha & Happy New Year! I have renewed interest in my Z06, so you may see me poking around asking questions again......decided to continue with the build up of the Z.

It's nice to be back and hope to see some old friends!

Aloha, Dave

Thanks guys. Cajun99! Wassup bro! As for future plans......

Maybe some bigger wheels (20"/22") to fit some 335's or 345's inside of a widebody/flared rear quarters and more of a drop with a flat black finish to the whole car.

Brah', you're Z is sick! Must be tough driving it in the heavy surf days when it's clean, huh? No trips to Ted's Bakery on the Nort' Chore in the winter I guess.
