Yet another Hawaii guy...

Hi all!



Well, I figured I ought to quit lurking so much (for over a month now!) and get things right, so here I am finally!



My name is Craig, and I am an amateur detailer (friends and family right now, but isn't that always how it starts?), having been so for about 10 years. I'm so glad I found this site (via a link on clublexus.com) because if it's one thing I needed it was direction. Now I can stop putting those rotary holograms onto people's cars.



I am an Admin on the forum for one of the most under-appreciated cars in history, the Toyota Cressida. Here is a gallery of my car, taken almost 2 years ago:

Sorry for the crappy lo-res pics, they were taken with a friend's borrowed (and now broken)1.2-megapixel Fuji. I ought to take more pics, but I'm having trouble downloading an appropriate driver for my 3-MP Olympus (I have Win98 non-SE).



Anyway, see y'all round these parts!:D
 
Aloha Craig,



Welcome to Autopia. You will definitely learn a lot here. And meet really cool dudes/gals. :D



With Aloha,

Ranney :)
 
Thanks for the welcome, all!



Zesty and Hirosh, kinda funny you'd say that. Everyone does seem to call it a granny-car. In fact, demographically speaking, I seem to see '89-92 Cressidas most frequently driven by middle-aged to elderly asian folks here in Hawaii. One day, my granny-car will get a heart transplant, namely a 7M-GTE from an MA70 Supra Turbo. Then we'll see "granny" administer a few spankings!;)



Hirosh, just guessing by your pics (gorgeous 'Stangs, BTW), but do you live in Kalama Valley? I'm out in Hawaii Kai too. Sorry if that was a breach of netiquette.



Ranney, I suppose I'll be eventually contacting you for some MFs.



Again, thanks for the warm welcome (at least the trades are back!).

nah, it's cool. but yeah, i live in Kalama Valley. my house is the one with all the shiney cars in the driveways and on friday nights, the garage door open with me usually polishing/waxing one of the cars. :p



and hopefully you'll let us know when you give your 'granny' a new heart so i can watch out for a certain gold cressida in HK. ;) but talk about a sleeper. maybe for kicks you can disguise yourself like a grandpa and give some of these yungin's a good whippin'! :D
