- I've been bouncing back and forth on what to take on the 2024 Hot Rod Power Tour this year, do I take the 1979 AMC Spirit AMX again? It's already done 3 Long Haul Power Tours in a row, does it have anything left to prove? Well what about the 1970 Pontiac LeMans? It's already got that big bad Pontiac 455 under the beautiful patina hood. But, it's also already been on a Pour Tour Long Haul already. It's also gotten slightly notorious for killing fuel pumps. It's also not quite so great on fuel, getting about 14mpg.
Well the answer is, neither of those. Both the old school hot rods are staying home, and I'm going to take my daddy's little black truck. This year, with everything going on, we're going to take the 1991 GMC Syclone for the Long Haul. This is an all original low mileage truck we have owned since it was brand new, and it's time to let it get some wind in it's hair. While it IS all stock and original it does need some love and attention. So let's get to work to get this ready for the road!
That is the perfect choice! You will be continuing his legacy, do this for your dad and make a cool video. It will be an absolute tribute to dad. I lost mine this past November, do it for him!
Great choice! A factory built hot rod truck doing Power Tour will become a fan favorite. AC is wise; suffering does not build character after a certain age.
Much Love to you Austin! Show Dad some love. Iwill live vicariously through you.
Perfect choice to keep your dad with you at all times
Hello Austin. I had the privilege of being with you for 2023! Power tour! Thanks 👍. I like the AMC.. YEP I was born in the 70's
It will be nice to take the GMC Cyclone on power tour. Even though your dad can’t go he can be there in spirit riding along and watching it on your channel
This is awesome, and praying for your dad and your family!

I am thinking you're making the best decision here. These cars are more about memories than any dollar sign you can attach to them.
Excellent choice. I'm sure your dad would love to see the videos of your PT journey.
I'm an old Pontiac fan but by all means, drive the cyclone in honor of your father.
Perfect choice, I've always loved those lil trucks. You're dad will be proud. My son bought 4 tires that exact size less than a year ago for his foxbody Mustang. Discount tire got them in less than a week. Cool seeing Bill and Vicki's Elcamino in the background lol.
That's actually NOT their El Co though it certainly looks it! Not many people are doing high performance 16 inch tires these days so finding a set has become harder and harder. I'm definitely excited to get this little thing out on the highways and byways to give it some adventures, even if my Dad can't be riding along beside me.
Go for the cyclone sir!! I’m just speaking from an S10 guys thoughts. I will be there Sunday and probably Monday just walking around and talking to people!!👍👍👍👍👍👍
Amazing I want to check in during power tour and make sure the trip goes well!!! Keep Safe!!!!
Hell yea ! Glad to see you driving it .. Cooper still has the tires . Don't chance trashing a wheel.. COOPER ZEON RS3-G1 245 50 16 still available
Doing it for Dad. That`s awesome Austin! Love those Syclones. Stomp on it and she`s GONE! Shit and git!
I'm lovin it 👍🇺🇲
Wow that’s cool dude ! There’s is a black typhoon and a black cyclone in my town both perfect condition and stock
Good choice, those are sweet little trucks. And taking your father even if in videos, is a cool thing.
We're going as well on the tour, I'll be in the black srt8 dodge challenger. Hopefully we will see you there
Not gonna lie,would have preferred the lemans,but I understand your choice. Hope to see you out there.
What a cool truck !!
I had one of those in high school.
Love it!! Perfect choice!
I know that amc from Kevins 2022 hot rod power tour
Please change those tires. If you take a chance with the ones that are on it you could mess up the truck. I had one that shredded and blew apart. Also took half of the fender with it too. Nice of a vehicle to take the chance
Try Coker tires and good luck on power your .
PUT A FACTORY REPLACEMENT K&N AIR FILTER IN IT WILL BE THE BEST $40 EVER SPENT ...
People are going to want to see under the hood, buy a can of degreaser,, some simple green and go visit the car wash. Nice Cyclone
Get that headliner fixed or take it out before you leave so it doesn't drive you nuts
A little off topic here. In several of yours and Rich's videos there is an old Chevy van in the background. In this video I noticed it has the old teardrop windows. Is there a story behind it or does it belong to a customer?
Happy birthday! In 2017 my family took our cars, or dad's cars because my sisters don't have their own, and we did Tour Nebraska, a 600 mile drive with 400 old cars around Nebraska. Dad passed in 2020, and 17 was the last time we were all able to be together. Enjoy the time you get with your dad. I might do HRPT next year, or sometime when I get something with AC running.
