Gatesville Texas is the home of the 21st Annual Leon River Car Show, which is hosted by the Cruzen Cruzers Car Club. The show takes place in a beautiful park on the banks of the Leon River and draws from 200 to 300 cars each year. The Donut Gang of Austin gathered together 9 cars and made the 200 mile round trip this past weekend, and were very glad they did. It's always nice to see some different Rod and Customs and traveling out of the home area is one sure to to accomplish that! Donut Gang member Mickey Greer made this the Maiden Voyage for his just finished '39 Ford Deluxe Coupe and it performed flawlessly. There were games for both adults and kids and some great Bar-B-Q for all. Lots of nice door prizes too. All in all, a great way to spend a Saturday.
