2012 Power Tour long haul?

Post by Nuthinbutmopar »

I'm thinking of running the long haul on the 2012 Hot Rod Power Tour in the '71 Adventurer Sport. I'm 2 hours north of Detroit and the buddy that I used to buy the truck by remote control is in DFW. I put in an A500 overdrive 4-speed last winter, and I'm thinking of yanking the motor this winter for a re-seal, that only leaves the leaky steering control valve to really worry about. Having no luck finding anything official on the Hot Rod website, any suggestions? Anyone on the likely route that wants to have some overnight visitors? Any other words of advice?

If you decide to swing by Bakersfield, Ca your more than welcome to stop and have a steak dinner and spend the night.

Damn, that is perfect for 2012! Might just have the Coronet up to snuff for a road trip by then!

Just a reminder, if anyone is coming out to any of the stops, look me up. The truck's about ready, just have to figure out which o-ring is leaking in the a/c this weekend, then hit the road next Friday.
