[Spridgets] Really?

[Michael Rowe]

This car is located in Waianae, which is far out in the country.  There are 
jokes about "girls from Nanakuli," and Waianae is farther out than Nanakuli! 
(I confess that my family lived even farther out on a different island.  My 
mother drove 100 miles for groceries every weekend - not Wyoming, perhaps, 
but pretty isolated.)

Although most people in Hawaii are "worldly," many are extremely isolated 
and naive.  They have never been much of anywhere or done much of anything, 
and don't realize how much they don't know (or maybe they just don't care) - 
rather like Manhattanites.     With in-migration and TV, etc., it is not as 
bad now as it used to be, but it is certainly not California.  These people 
would see this car as a rare antique no one has ever heard of, and they 
would not think to look online to find out what it might be worth.  What 
would most people in your neighborhood think if they found a 1938 Bugatti 
under a pile of junk in a shed?
