Thanks for the props.
Kon H, I ran a 20.2 (my first ever pass), and then my second was a 19.9. Im considering getting "DUZ-19S" plates made up for the next round just to take the piss. Im having a good time, and not taking it too seriously. Hey, I got more track time than any other competitor, haha

So Hewewy, you have been holding out on us,, When were you at the Mai Kai?? And you didn't call us to let us know?? Must be why you and your tiki were so " Depressed".
Love it.

Update: The wagon is not to be mine  Everyone that looks at the bug freaks out at the rust. We have recently found out the wagon has a rusty floor, and the engine is dieing. That coupled with the not-selling the bug factor just means it isnt gonna happen.
I have decided to go on a cruise to the South Pacific, so I cant afford to drop lots of money changing cars.
I will be back with another tiki wagon. Maybe a VW van. I just hope it is sooner rather than later.

Im gonna keep the "Kustom KaHoona" name too (thanks wahine). I will use it in the future somewhere, maybe a tiki wagon, maybe a tiki bar, maybe a business name...

Hey Hewey
sorry to here that mate.
Hopefully the anticipation of your cruise and the memories it will provide you will let you forget all about the wagon.
PS Why not Tikify the bug? it would probably make a mean tiki mobile
cheers

Part of me would like to tikify the bug - the other part of me is sick of the damn thing, and would prefer to put my time into something I am gonna keep and enjoy. Im not gonna keep it much past the short term, so I cant mess with it too much, cause every dollar I save on it, is a dollar I can spend on something I would like to keep for a while. Also, gonna be even harder to offload it when its too personalised, its hard enough as it is already!
But, Im hanging to really mess with something. Hang around, I might get around to it in another 20 years or so, instead of just talking... (again)

Hewey, too bad about the Kustom Kahoona, I guess it just wasn't meant to be. TikiBug sounds pretty good tho.

What do you mean? A big ship cruise or a small (sail)boat cruise? Cruise the South Pacific. One o'these days, if I'm lucky.
