Whats up guys? Just signed up to the forum, and so far it looks really good. I have been on a few over the years, but I like the layout of this one about the best. Just a quick rundown, I live in Prince Albert, I am A GM guy. I have Pontiacs, Chevs, and a Buick. I am A collector, well thats how I justify it to myself. My yard is full, so I must be doing something right. I am looking forward to the discussions and the buying and selling. Steve

"Hey I recogonize a couple of those cars! Is there some sort of a "little run to big Steves" every year?"
WHy yes there is !!
Steve and I started the 'Little Run' about 7 years ago, a gathering of car folks who just want to hang out for the day and cruise up to the lakes, then visit with BBQ and social into the evenings, hosted by Big Steve.
last year we headed to Christopher Lake, the local hotel is owned by a friend of Big Steve's , so they allowed us to take over the parking lot while they served up Buffalo burgers. I think we had 35 cars make the cruise!
So, when we pick a date , I will post here and hope to see you at the lakehead !!
