Hot Rod Power Tour 2016 - Round Rock to Taylor Texas - The Power Tour was here in Austin on Monday at the Circuit of the Americas F1 racetrack, and then drove right through my hometown of Round Rock yesterday morning. I could not take off work Monday, but went in late yesterday, and I loaded up my Dad and my kids and we drove the Roadmaster and the '82 Z28 with the tour from Round Rock to Taylor Tx, and then parked there downtown and watched the cars pass by. I counted five GM Longroofs, and a TON of other wagons too, along with enough awesome rides to please anybody. I about melted my phone, took 700 pics...there were over 2000 cars on the tour, including Rutledge Wood from American Top Gear and the guys from ROADKILL in their hot rod C10 pickup. ANYWAY as noted I took a LOT of pics, and all are here in this public Album if you want to see them: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10209737338380889.1073742125.1553678810&type=3 That was a TOTAL BLAST! Safe Travels Long Haulers!! -Mike
I've had a bad feeling about Rutledge Wood ever since he said his wife made him sell his Roadmaster wagon. He really just didn't want it, couldn't handle such a manly vehicle, should of let his wife drive it.
I spent the day in Grand Prairie with the wagon, but didn't take any pics of it, but here are a few from a write up Hot Rod Magazine did: http://www.hotrod.com/events/hot-ro...a-wagon-gallery-from-hot-rod-power-tour-2016/
