2018 Promo Tour

The Promo Tour was great! The trip was uneventful as far as the car goes. We got back home yesterday around 2:00. The car did great except for a bit of a heater core leak on the FIRST day at the FIRST stop... Put a loop in place of the heater hoses and had no further issues.
The wagon drove nicely and we put about 760 trouble free miles on her. I used 38 or 40 gallons of gas on the trip so that works out to 19 or 20 miles to the gallon! I am not going to complain about that. I am thanking the PFI Systems TBI and the 200R4 for the mileage. The car ran down the road at 55 or 60 with the RPM's at 1500... I am very happy with the car right now.
Here are a few pics taken during the week on the road.

Real nice wagon; '56 is my favorite of the shoebox era.

Thanks! She proved herself on this trip!
I have to revise my fuel mileage numbers though. I didn't include the 10 gallons I used going from Tawas to home thru Birch Run. With 50 gallons used I got about 15.2 MPG. I thought the 19-20 was kinda high. I filled the car up today on the way to the A&W Cruise in Flushing and realized I hadn't counted the last leg of the trip... Still 15 or 16 is nothing to sneeze at... :)

What is the "Promo Tour", I'm not familiar with this one.

It's Michigan based and is tied to Back to the Bricks. This is a huge show that is put on in downtown Flint at the end of August.
Here is a link to the BttB's web page: https://backtothebricks.org/2018-promo-tour/
Driving across the bridge with the wagon was very cool.
