@MerlinsOldSchoolGarage out for his FIRST EVER Hot Rod Power Tour West 2023 with @BrianMacyHPC in a 1940 Ford Sedan Delivery. Brian is excited to get this car out on the road again in honor of his Grandfather. From California, to Nevada and back to California again, the Hot Rod Power Tour West 2023 is a fun filled time with many surprise friend appearances @RidingWithAlexTaylor, @flyingsparksgarage, @12VoltDave, @Midwestpaintandmetal, and some new folks we encounter along the way @TheRustFarm,@RennegarbeIronCo, Danny Grubaugh and many more. Special thank you to my cousin Tyron for the use of his garage. This was a jam packed power tour you don't want to miss!
Thanks for watching and Happy New Year from the MOSG crew!

Thanks Merlin for taking us along, most entertaining!
Merlin the Ambassador of Old School Hot Rods. Love how you try to get todays youth involved. Thanks for sharing.
I love the fact that you're challenging those who "know" to bring young people in, under their wings, to share what is truly a diy/farmer/mechanic skill set .... oh and Merlin, your way with making everyone around you feel important/impactful is fantastic/impressive/motivating/THE BEST
Merlin! Just awesome. Cheers Cape town 🇿🇦👌🇺🇲🇺🇲
I met his channel via Paul and Michelle, via Matt and Jamey.
Once again Merlin, Thanks for taking us subscriber's along for the ride. Love the channel. Keep up the great work.👍✌️😎😁🍀🍀🍀🍀🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
I was in the middle of watching, “Roadkill Garage” driving in the, “2023 Power Tour,” paused it, more important to watch Merlin do his thing, then, back to, RKG.
Yea but those Frieburger and Dolsich are on the East coast Power tour that was last March..
@@chuckfowler8875 yep, just pointing out that Merlin’s video took precedence over RKG, no matter where they were.
Thanks Merlin for another amazing video. A amazing group of people , amazing stories.
Thanks for bringing us along Merlin, very cool!! happy new year to you and your family!!!!
Thank uou Merlin and Brian for taking us along on the road tour. You’re so kind to help those in need and others are likewise with you you have friends all over. Brian’s Grandpa’s truck did well except for the Balljoint. Thks again.🤙😎
Thanks for taking me along on this trip it was awesome 👍.
Good to see Emily and Aaron. You should get Emily to do Off Roading at Matt's Off Road Games
Met Alex and her dad a couple years back, great people
I remember, (can not forget) taking 4 hours to drive 70 miles on a Friday while living in Southern California 20 years ago. I DO NOT miss it! I get a laugh when I see the Traffic Reports where I live now, every street in the Report is Green with very seldom a Yellow section. I lived 1 mile from the 10 Freeway and the constant noise from all the Traffic was deafening. When I moved back to Ohio where I grew up I was amazed at how silent it was. So silent that I developed Tinnitus or so I was told by an Ear and Throat Doctor I went to see. He told me after living with the noise my brain is now causing the Tinnitus so I don't think I'm going deaf. Not sure if I had the Tinnitus while living in California, the Noise never stopped long enough to hear the ringing.
Thanks for taking us with you on this amazing journey it was really fun to drive along with you guys!!! Have a Happy New Year 🎊🎈🎆 and I can’t wait to see what you have planned for next year!!!
Thanks for taking me along 😀👍
Watching Merlin doing his thing enjoying the tour was cool to watch! Your well respected in the automotive world! Keep up the great content! Til next time, see you then. ✌️ 😊
Merlin and Danny absolutely 💯Great Content and Video Thanx for sharing
Really Appreciate your Time
Have a Great Day
High School Auto Shop instructor ran his 1955 Chev. at Irwindale. Claimed he got into the 10’s with it, (in the quarter). I remember helping put the 427 CI together, not much else. {Torqued the rod bearing caps; (why Gary / the shop instructor trusted me with this action; is why I remember this part of the build)}. Only failed part was the manual 4-speed transmission, not the engine). 😳
Hey Merlin Thank You That was very cool… Happy New Year 🎊🎈🎆 ❤💪🏻✌️👊🏻
Who’s ready for some new merchandise 🎉 #staytuned Happy New Year Everyone ! 🥳
Thanks Merlin.
That was a cool adventure brought back a lot of memories .
Keep up the good work..
🤟🏽👍🏽🤚🏽👌🏽✌🏽😊😎🙋🏽♂️
A LOT of memories, for me anyways, Geez.
Happy New Year, Merlin! Looking forward to what 2024 brings.
Wow what a time enjoyed every moment!
The king must be right. My dear old dad was always explaining to me that the best way to find a helping hand is to look at the end of my arm.
Merlin, I don't think you were expecting to be fixing a ball-joint on the tour. Well done on fixing it. Happy New Year.
Wonderful adventure, buncha chuckles & stories! Love that you've chosen us to ride along, & all the new events for the New Year! Hope its a blessed one for All! Thanx !
I'm glad you guys enjoyed yourselves. It was weird what happened with the ball joint but you were able to patch it together and keep going. Just have to remember to fix it the right way once he's back home.
Enjoyed!!!! 🤜🤛
My uncle had a 46 Chevy delivery he drove to Texas and back with a inline 6 and 4sp I tried for years to buy it he wouldn't sell it to me because it belong to my aunt who passed it sat in pasture for years he sold it to a friend of ours who restored it from a rust bucket great video keep up the good work God bless from GA
Thanks Merlin for taking us along for the ride. Hopefully they will continue the tour. You know your cousin Paul always says "cross threading is as good as loctite"😊
@Merlin So, Parker AZ. was my aunt and uncle's town, and by default my cousins' town. Uncle Elroy worked for the government during and after the construction of both the dam and Gene (spelling?) pumping station. He was a carpenter by trade, and was a part of the team of men who built all those homes over in Gene Village and some of Parker too I guess. I've been inside the pumping station a couple of times on "The Family Tour" back in the day, and everyone waved at him and knew him by name. Very Cool. They later moved to Kingman Az.for their retirement, I'm currently trying to get a hold of their property and if I do, we will hopefully meet in person one day. Also my Father was a machinist in Irwindale Ca. and my oldest Brother Jerold used to work at Miller Brewery there as well. A very good friend of the family, Chuck, worked his way up to being Chief of Police of Irwindale Ca. also. (now retired) So thank you for this. EDIT: I almost forgot the most important part! My brother Mike used to race his Pontiac Tempest out at the original Irwindale Raceway, which was my introduction to "Wrenchin'&Racin'" Which got bulldozed for a certain Brewery to be built in it's place. :-( EDIT #2: omg I didn't know you were going to Po-Mona too! Pfffft! Pomona Fair, for many years, Pomona Computer show/swap meet every month for years, Pomona Swap Meet, The freakin' Winter-Nationals! with big brother Mike, bless his drag racin' soul! (second New Year & Christmas without him) Are ya sure you're not gonna just pull in the driveway of my childhood home or something?! "Power Tour West, A Slice of my Entire Life" Geez! Thank You So Much Merlin, really.
Such an amazing video thank you for sharing this one I truly enjoyed it seeing all those amazing cars!
1 hr to midnight, new years eve here in oz. Sorry Merlin, have watch this tomorrow.
Happy new year everyone
Awesome show, excellent car's and a great variety,thanks for sharing, Wishing you and your loved ones, a Healthy and Prosperous New Year

Merlin, it amazes me how much energy and drive you have. It looks like everyone had a great time on the Power Tour West. I'm glad you guys got to go and bring us a very interesting video!
6 lanes of stopped, merging traffic one way. LMAO no thanks.
Glad we have nothing like that where im at. 2 lanes each way sucks enough.
Some really nice Rides at that show. Sick Rat Rods, and Franken Bug is sweet.
Excited for Sic Week 2024. Thanks for sharing Merlin.
Saw you in Newbern's video so I knew you went, glad to see you had a good time. I figured you were around my age, I was born 53 years ago the day before yesterday. 1970
That Blue Car is a Wayne World!!
Newest of years to you all,
Hang in there,
One way or another.🎉❤
Crossed thread.. the Ultimate Locktight! 😁
Neat video Merlin.
Watching this was a cool way to spend the last hour of 2023!
HAPPY NEW YEAR
Alex ….. the cutest human on earth.
One of the best channels on RUclips
Wow. An hour and 17 minutes that flew by. Loved the format of this video. The stories being told are amazing.
Now I’ve got some new channels to check out. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Merlin you never get excited just fix the problem you are so talented and knolagable . The most fun thing about this vidio was the look on Emilys face when you pulled that one on her it was priceless
All ways love your vidios. Most all the u tubers i watch are your friends.fantastic stuff
Another great video Merlin! I wished I had been able to make PT this year! I hope to be there next year. It is great how everyone pulls over and helps everyone out along the way! Great stories of the family cars too! Keep up the great work you do and best wishes on 2024!
Very KOOL Tour Nice 40 panel truck Brian and Melin
Was in pomona in 1962. Good races even then.
Happy new year to all
I love that Pacer. I would love to have a Pacer or a Gremlin.
I remember this car from Ventura back in the day! It sat in a driveway near where I lived and saw it all the time. So cool to see it now!
Another Merlin Classic - pun intended 😂 - Thank you for including us in the Youniverse, and all the You-niverse tubers!
Brian Macy is the man. I miss watching him race the nova. He is an amazing tuner. I enjoy seeing Brian on your RUclips.
I just noticed Brian has a Wildman racing sweatshirt on.
Hot Damned
Very Cool Merlin, Looks like you guys had a great time..Thanks!!
Used to race with Lee & Mary back when they lived in SoCal.
A trip down memory lane for sure, that was a great video!!! thanks for some great content!!!
Merlin knows everybody, and everybody knows Merlin. Truly an old school hotrodder.
Glad you enjoyed The Mirthmobile! We raced it in Vegas & clipped off a 20.39 & 67mph! Next time, take it down the track!
I grew up hanging out in Jim's hot rod shop in ventura ! Valley vintage rods. My dad would work for him on the side. Good to see John's Joy is still on the road!
Good job Merlin. Really enjoyed this one. I finally got the answer to the mystery of how Merlin "Old School" met Alex Taylor! Great Story telling on this whole vid! Love it!
From me and my family wishing you a happy new year can’t wait to see what you get up too 🎉🥃🍻

Its a grand adventure thanks for bringing us along
Happy New Year all at Merlins old school garage!🎆🎇
Always an adventure! Very Cool!
I was in spectator form at Pomona as all my junk is under construction pretty much.
From the looks of it in your video, I had left before you got there. I would loved to have met you and said hello. Oh well, maybe next time.
The yellow LUV you walked around is my buddy's, Don Leath.
It was cool seeing Aaron and Emily in your video. I hung with them shortly after they arrived and I had some great conversation with Aaron and joked around with Emily. I love her sense of humor.
Hope you made it home OK. Be safe!
Happy New Year Merlin! Be watching to see what you cross thread this yr, haha. Cool ride Brian's got
Cool event.... thanks fellows...... JJ...😊
Thanks for the video!😎👍
Eddie World 2 blocks from the house I grew up in...Awesome video Merlin😊
OMG ! I can't count the times I have been on Rice Road going to the River/Havasu ! I remember when that gas station was open ! Thanks for sharing ! Pomona is not far away from me ! Thanks for sharing !
Merlin & Merlin’s Beautiful Daughter (Mrs. Merlin Respectively), Thank You Kindly for the New Year’s Eve Treat & I’m off to Watch in a Timely Fashion being the Icing on the Cake. I Appreciate what you do Sir, God Bless You, I’ll catch You on the Next One. Keep It Safe Out There Sir. Happy New Year All!!
Was a nice end of the day to enjoying the power tour! And seeing all the cars and watching Merlin do his thing helping people and sharing his talents.
Another fabulious video. When ya'll were in Parker it reminded me of years ago my foray in my Hondo 5/8 runner bottom boat to the Parker strip. Good times. Have a safe and joy filled New Year. The event reminded me a lot of the old Car Craft Street machine nationals up in Sacramento.
Great video, gotta love those late night repairs but better than being on the side of the road. Happy New Year to you and yours Merlin!
Thanks guys for all your great videos, Merry Christmas and happy New Year 😎🇦🇺👍
More Great Content now over to watch Jimmy's Rail Build Update......Love it
Love the road trip this is my favorite channel love ya guysv
Love those old panel trucks. I always wanted to build one and make it 4 wheel drive. Then paint it and have a native picture airbrushed on it
Thanks Merlin it’s been a crazy year for me and your videos helped. Hope you have a great 2024.
Merlin I like your way to get young people enjoying the old school love for cars. Just look at Aaron and Emily, Cory and Hannah enjoying there life. Four wonderful people.Love them all. Cheers Cape town 🇿🇦👌,❤️🇺🇲🇺🇲💯
That bumper to bumper traffic reminds me of Toronto on any weekday and any freeway going into the city.
Regarding GM keys, the door AND ignition keys for my 1959 Pontiac would work in my Dads 1964 Chev, no problem. The ignition key for my 1965 Chev truck would work as an ignition key for my 1988 Freightliner.
Welding ball joints is a new one on me. lol
Gday guys happy new year
❤
My favorite youtuber, great show Merlin. Happy New year
Watch The power tour , brought back memories. Graduated high school in 1969 , took a road trip from Salinas Ca. To lake Havasu, two friends and myself in my 1962 Volkswagen. Good show .
