Kenny Brown Marauder, Honolulu, Hawaii

[freakstatus]

Saw a Kenny Brown Marauder on the H1 West on ramp at Piikoi St. in Honolulu. Took some pics of it from behind, but the plate is showing and I don't have photoshop. Could have used some detailing but still looked good.

Could be Mac's old car?

[TAKEDOWN]

Would be my guess too. The owner was going to use it as his police cruiser and was required to replace the "Kenny Brown" etched windshield.

[hot-rauder]

use the paint brush in Paint to black out the plate

[freakstatus]

Here it is....Thanks hot-rauder.

What's that little tag towards the right side of the rear bumper? It has 12 on it.

The car wouldn't have been the same with all the requirements imposed by the PD for use. I hope he didn't change much of it before he sold it.

freakstatus: was the windshield still etched with "Kenny Brown"? That looked really really cool!

Thats Hawaii's insurance/registration sticker. By law they have to have it on the bumper. Localboy has one too (I'll get a pic up of his soon).

Did they etch the windshields in all the Kenny browns, I didn't notice if my buddies has his etched?

[freakstatus]

Is this the same car I saw in Hawaii? If it is, its sure taken a beating since this shot was taken....

[Local Boy]

What a SHAME!!!:alone:

ALOHA

That sure is Macs car and man that is a real downer. It is no surprize to me that the police had to remove it from their fleet because it would be in the shop every two weeks. I was told it was sold to the police as a K9 unit and I wasn't too happy to hear about that. I almost had my old man getting this car for me, but instead we decided to fix my old one and the KB seemed like it was going to be a basket case if I wanted it as a daily driver.

The car sure looked better when I saw it and drove it a few years ago, I just know someone in the Marauder community will save it. It may look like that now because there is a lotta salt in the area as suppose to the midwest where I saw it last.

Thanks for the find though.

its a mandatory safety check inspection sticker in Hawaii for drk tint, horn, head-brake-signal lights,etc.

Can you imagine a German Shepard in the back seat of a KB supercharged Marauder. During a pursuit and then come to find the dog has slipped between the seats and into the trunk, due to G-Force.

[Marauderman]

Am a bit curious----how is anyone determining its Mac old car?....What insures you that it is from these pics?........and BTW--Someone has taken my Red Line features and applied it I see.....nicely done I might add--in other words--what tells it as being in worst condition.......hard to tell from what I can see........guess my screen is dirty .....

[jgc61sr2002]

It still has Mac's license plates on it.

[offroadkarter]

Thats a shame :(

[MM03MOK]

No, that's the picture I took of "Patches" when I took her to MV2 in 2004. She won People's Choice award from the IMOA.

Because he sold his car to someone in Hawaii

And because there are very few Kenny Brown Marauders. We are assuming it's his. In all probability it is.

[MADDOG]

Aloha all,

Been awhile since I done any posting. To clear up all the rumours on the Marauder in question.

1. Yes it's the same KB sold to an HPD Officer here in Hawaii.

2. No, the Officer still has ths Maruader and did not sell it. The Marauder did not seem to have any problems with it for I have seen him driving it several times in and out of the station, on the road and also seeit parked in the station. And boy the that M.M sounds real goooood.

3. And last of all don't let a little dirt on Marauder fool you. We use our personal vehicles for police works. We call it a Police Subsidized Vehicle. So it gets dirty real fast. And yes it will still drive fast with the a little dirt on it. (hehe). But I'll give M.M its weekly wash and wax.

There's a good group of M.M's that officers use for police work here in Hawaii.

Well I hope this cleared up any and all qustions and rumour.

Cool. My car get's it share use and shows it too... but every week I make it look good again. I guess we caught the KB on it's way to the wash. :cool:

[Local Boy]

Thanks MADDOG...

Good to know it is still in good working condition...I've seen it at the court house several times...and it has always been dirty...It certainly is understandable...seeing "severe duty" on a daily basis...

ALOHA

[hispdvic]

To all the gossip queens, the car runs great, it was dirty due to the rain we had, didn't have time to wash it during the week. I dont know what car the guy is looking at the court house, because its not my car I haven't been to court in years, I dont give tags.
P.S the dogs like the ride, the tracking dog sleeps and the Man-eater slids around in the crate.

Local Boy,

Thats probably my Marauder you see at the court house. I'm there almost everyday of the week. Yeah it's always dirty too:D.

[Zack]

All I know is that car FLEW when Mac sold it.

[hispdvic]

Still does!!!!!:banana2:

[Zack]

Still does!!!!!:banana2:

Well If you are the owner, congrats.
I assembled the engine in the car and installed it :up:

[Local Boy]

Right-on my Brutha's!!!...:2thumbs:

If I offended you, hispdvic...I appologize, it certainly was not my intention...(hand shake and Big Hug)

MADDOG...I'll make sure to say Howzit, if I see you there...:D

Be Safe, and Take Care...:beer:

ALOHA

BTW: Thanks, both of you, for your service... :)

[freakstatus]

I wonder which Island MM is the fastest??? Hmmm. ;):burnout:

[CRUZTAKER]

freakstatus: was the windshield still etched with "Kenny Brown"? That looked really really cool!


The windshield was removed and replaced before it made its way the island.

Very sad to see that windshield removed and disposed of indeed.
