Father's Day Car Show Roundup

Every Father's Day, Austin plays host to the annual Father's Day Car Show, a great event that showcases some of the most exciting classic cars in Austin. Despite the extreme heat, I dropped by and had a blast. The cars on hand were terrific and interesting, and made for a terrific turnout. But don't just take my word for it. Here's a rundown of some of the most interesting vehicles in attendance.
