Some flash, the wee Kwaka looks almost brand new, same as the rider, the dreams and innocence of youth.

We used to rip one of those exact baby Kawi's up and down the railroad tracks where the Broadway Expressway now lies in Walnut Creek.
Phoenix Ironworks also made the manhole covers that are used in The Walnut Knolls.

Killah scoot for Honolulu! Just talked to a guy the other day who said the market for older Kawa's was "name your price".
