I've been babbling about & drooling over everyone else's Tiki Bars & Lounges for way too long. It's time to get my butt moving on my own. The name comes from the Mauna Kai poly-pop restaurant & lounge that was down the street from where I grew up in Marlboro Mass. I don't remember eating there more than once or twice, but we always got take-out & I vividly remember going in with my dad to pick it up. The place burned down when I was in junior high & never re-opened. I have yet to find any artifacts from it in my hunting, but I'm always hoping. This is my pathetic starting point, after I removed the maggot-infested rotting squirrel carcasses from my dropped ceiling. I 'm a big Hot Rod/Kustom Kulture guy so the room will be split between that & Tiki. Here's the mess I'm starting with!:





I'll keep you posted!
