I was thinking about it.
If you're buying it.
I'm just wondering could we put that on there?
White shoe polish yeah.
Yeah, we get back Doors and all that we're not doing damn white shoe polish no, but seriously, that's what I thought about doing.
We need to talk to John.

So we look forward and we look yeah, I've been spinning some dough as well as other hot rod tour of Texas entrance, because I've seen the post.
Hey man, I'm still working on the car.

Yeah, yeah, the guy with the I don't know if you remember the the 55 Chevrolet, the twin turbo 55, the flat black one, yep, he's building a gas or 55 to have on the tour.
I posted that.
Yeah, a gas or on the tour, I love it.
Six gas stations, two a mile.
Yeah, exactly, all right, so we start off in Victoria.
On Thursday, we actually don't go anywhere other than the square down there.
Is it going?
to be food and cocktails.
There's.
There's food trailers.
There's a lot of restaurants that are going to stay open late.

There's several bars downtown that are that are going to stay open, and Victoria just became approved has a entertainment district, so are the downtown area.
You'll be able to walk up and down the street with your cold beverage and enjoy the shops and all that kind of good stuff.
All of the downtown merchants have joined on board with us to to do some stuff.
There's going to be a lot of cool stuff going on down.
So you two have energized, single handedly, each of you have energized the city of Victoria.
Now the city of Victoria is energized.
We're just being a part of it.
Well, but I will say this I mean, you know this is the third one and I've been to the first one, been to the second one, looking forward to this one, but let's face it.
I mean things have progressed, it's grown and it's become famous.
I mean I'll never forget They've grown.
Yeah, I'll never forget what I think it was.
Last year we went I don't remember what city it was they had the fire truck out with the big American flag hanging in the middle of the first year in Yocum, Yocum, Texas.
Are we going to go back to Yocum this year?
Actually we are, we are, we are and you guys are going to love the goodie bags because most of these cities have are providing maps and tourism guides and all kinds of good, good stuff in each, in the bags.
That's awesome.
So are we going to be able to put an in wheel time card in the bag?
Absolutely, yeah, it's due to arrive either today or Monday.
As soon as I get it, I'm going to ship it on to you with some other stuff.
Fantastic Fantastic.
Yeah, so we are who we are.
Whatever?
you want to believe us to be.
That's what we are.
I know, yeah, all right, so when we head out on a Friday morning, are we meeting at it?
We're meeting at a different place in that too aren't we?
We're meeting at a different place.
Yeah, we're meeting at a baseball field.
This used to be the Victoria Rosebuds in our downtown park.
Okay, so we're going to go back downtown to meet up, to get out of town.
Yep, it's on the edge of downtown.
Okay, all right.
Well, I think that you've kind of outgrown the sport bike place over there.
Yes, we outgrown it and we backed up traffic about three miles when we pulled out because we had so many cars.
Yeah, I know, and I was right there with you.
That's the fun part.
Yeah, well, it is for you.
It is the fun part, All right.
So where do we head on Friday morning?
Friday morning we'll head out actually down the same main road on Navarro that we left in the past two couple years.
Right yeah, we'll head out for Yocum.
There's a back road that we'll take to Yocum.
See some camels.
Yeah Well not that far yet, but it's coming.
But yeah, so we'll go to Yocum.
We'll stop at the Shroud of Brewery again, like we did the first year.
Oh nice.
We'll stay there longer this time.
Good, we have a barbecue actually a barbecue restaurant there too, and if you want to make the tour.
Go online to Shroud of Brewery and you can reserve your tour time.
So you definitely want to do that if you want to make the tour.
The tour is very cool.
We've done it several times.
Well, are they going to take us inside the brewery, or is it the?
oh they will.
Yeah, the tour actually takes you inside where the brewery is.
They go over the history of the brewery.
You get some tokens for some drinks.
Samples, Samples yes, good samples, we like samples.
I'm not a beer drinker, but I have to tell you that I did enjoy that because they've got different kinds of Shiner beer, you know what I.
They've also got liquor now, and they've got frozen drinks as well.
Yeah baby, now you're talking.
And that liquor.
They call it Moose Shrine and you can only buy it there.
I like it.
Is there a limit?
on how many times.
It's a very cool tour.
Is there a limit on how many times you can take the tour?
No, I don't think so Mike needs a bag load of tokens is what he needs.
Yeah, that's right.
Exactly Okay.
So then we go to Yocum, and then we go on to Shiner, and then we're headed to New Braunfels.
Yes, and around the Batway, yep, we'll go through another small town, moulton.
Moulton, yep, and then we'll go a back road to Gonzalez.
Isn't Moulton a Polish or a Czech community?
I?
Believe it's Czech yeah yeah, Because I way back when I was just a itty bitty, teeny weeny little boy.
I worked with some guys from Moulton and I believe that they were Czech yeah.
Get some good Kamosa and things.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Yeah, yeah, all right.
So, and then we go to New Braunfels, right, right, and are we doing the drive-in movie this year?
Yes, we are, we are doing the drive-in movie.
And hopefully we don't have some big nasty thunderstorm.
No, there's gonna be beautiful weather.
Yeah, guaranteed we ordered it.
We ordered it special.
Good, good, Hopefully it doesn't go through.
So we spend the night in New Braunfels and we get up the next morning.
We all gather up somewhere and then head out again.
Yeah, and before the drive-in we're gonna make another stop at Samson's Performance and Restoration.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You guys enjoy.
Oh, they've got some amazing bills that are going on right now.
It's a.
We were there just last weekend for their open house amazing shop.
Well, I have to tell you that that interview that I did with one of the boys there that took, yeah, that got lots of hits.
Yeah, the clean room, the engine room.
And so I don't know what they were gonna do.
Mr Mars is gonna line all that stuff up.
Hopefully we can take full advantage of it.
They've got a lot of stuff there to talk about.
Yeah, they do.
It is really amazing.
They've got some fabulous bills going on there.
You know I was gonna say I know that you got everything in order this year, but I thought you know we need to head out there toward iron resurrection sometime, because you know they live out in the sticks out there.
We were there this morning.
They were closed up sleeping in.
I guess we were there this morning, well you know, I would imagine that the only time that they work on the weekends is when they're doing a video shoot out there, and because, to my experience, I can tell you that when the video guys are there, they work long hours and, as you can imagine, All right.
so We've scouted that location out as a potential stop for the tour, but there's just not nearly enough parking.
Correct, I would imagine that would be the case.
But you know, I was thinking maybe a drive-by wave or something just to say that we were there.
Yeah, but anyway.
So that's going to be out of new Braunfels and we're going to go to Samson garage, and then where do we go?
Then the drive-in.
Then the drive-in, now before the drive-in, at the drive-in we're going to show Smokey and the Bandit this year, the original Smokey and the Bandit.
Very nice, we're going to do a best car any car that was in Smokey and the Bandit contest and best costume, so you can dress up as any character in Smokey and the Bandit.
I want to be.
I know I don't fit the profile, but I want to be Buford T.
Just no, no, no, no.
I thought you were going to be the bride Sally Fields, the bride, the bride.
I think I'd be.
I could pull that off.
I could be the bride.
You could Throw the dress out, the teal, you got the walk.
At the teatop and I've got the teatop and you got the walk.
You can sashay to the we got some really cool stuff we're going to give away there on those costume contest and the best car.

Yeah, cuz I mean I'm gonna have to, I'm gonna have to buy my dress.

Oh, yes, I made that that's out in the countryside when we went down that funky road.
Yeah, we were gonna.
Nobody would ever find that.
Place it.
I don't care whether it's on a map or not.
You'd never find it unless you were behind somebody.
Well, now, now, the building that we went to there when you went with us is Really small compared to what they've got now.
Okay they've got that building and two other buildings, but the other building is a massive, about a 10,000 square foot all-wood structure.
Beautiful.
Branding.
Well good, I'm looking forward to that.
Now Do I have a reserved Spot in line so I can?

Original notes
Rev your engines and join the excitement as we cruise with the Bobbsey Twins from Victoria, Texas, embarking on the thrill-filled Hot Rod Tour of Texas. Our journey begins in the vibrant heart of Victoria's downtown square, where good times roll and tour gear awaits eager participants. Don couldn't resist sharing the spruce-up that his Corvette received, boasting new seats and a dash cam to capture every high-octane moment. We'll reminisce about the roaring engines and fluttering flags of tours past, setting the stage for this year's camaraderie-infused escapade through the Lone Star State.
Buckle up for a Friday filled with the scenic back roads of Texas, where each turn promises a new tale. Hear firsthand about our itinerary that's more than just a mere roadmap—it's a ticket to discovery, from the historic Shiner Brewery to the Czech flavors of Moulton and a nostalgic drive-in movie night in New Braunfels. With a pit stop at Samson's Performance and Restoration for a sneak peek at their mechanical masterpieces, this chapter of our adventure is sure to fuel your passion for all things automotive. And for those who fancy themselves as Burt Reynolds, ready your Trans Ams and your cowboy hats for a "Smokey and the Bandit" inspired contest that's sure to be a hoot at a special showing of 'Smokey and the Bandit' at the Drive-In!
As we coast into the final leg of our episode, shift gears and shine a light on Houston's auto aficionados and the charitable hearts at God's Garage. The Mecum Auto Auction looms on the horizon, promising a spectacle of prized vehicles for collectors and dreamers alike. And for those who prefer the comfort of their couches, we've got the scoop on what's revving up on Motor Trend TV.
