Super Chevy Show Baytown Hoedown Classic Truck

Super Chevy Show Baytown Hoedown 1956 Chevy 150 Utility Sedan

It was another great time in Baytown for the Super Chevy crew this year. With perfect weather and a great turnout from Bow Tie fans across the Texas and Louisiana area, there was plenty to enjoy.

The good folks at Ron Craft Chevrolet hosted another massive cruise to the track on Saturday morning. After last year's colossal turnout, everyone was better prepared for another 200-car gathering. Later on in the story you can check out a gallery page that shows just some of the cars from the cruise, and we'll post everything else on superchevy.com when this story hits our website. Thanks again to Ron Craft Chevrolet and track manager Seth Angel for organizing another great kick-off cruise for the event.
