big show in alberta - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

grnddwn · 02-11-2003, 11:26 PM

I know I've posted this before but the Superrun show is on the August long weekend in Red Deer Alberta. This would be a good chance for a bunch of us to get together check out each others rides. My blazer will be done and there. This is a three day show stating with a big cruise and drive-in on friday. If anyone is interested or is going let me know.

I'll see if I'm off for it, but my truck will be a long ways from finished. Unless I win the lotto.

racerjim · 02-12-2003, 10:12 PM

1968GMC · 02-12-2003, 10:34 PM

hmm, my sisters live in calgary, it would be a good reason to go up there. Last time and only time I went to calgary was in 84, I was 15. How far is red deer from calgary. It would be rely cool to meet there. I' thinking abbout it for shure.

racerjim · 02-12-2003, 10:43 PM

red deer is only about an hour to an hour and a half north of calgary. not too far at all.

1968GMC · 02-12-2003, 10:51 PM

tanx racerjim, its pretty bad to go there for a car show rather then my sisters. Shame on me. I wonder if I wold win the long distence awward?

grnddwn · 02-12-2003, 11:55 PM

Three hills is the first weekend in june. I'm not going to make htere because my wife is due that weekren and doesn't want to give birth in Three Hills

Long distance award at the 2000 superrun I think was won by someone from Cali

grnddwn · 02-12-2003, 11:58 PM

I'm gonna try and get a printable copy of the entry form and post a link to it soon. This was a killer show last time 1000+ rods customs and trucks. First year for my blazer I'm going to the radium show this fall too.

Canada20 · 02-13-2003, 01:14 AM

I've heard the Three Hills show is a great one and I keep meaning to get to it every year and every year it slips by and about a week later I realize it. It's kinda like Valentine's Day come to think of it.....

I was around Radium a couple of years ago when that fall show was on. Holy Crap! I was travelling back here on the last day and it was something to be cruising along with classic Camaros and a 32 Ford. I keep promising myself that I'm going to have a classic car or truck to take to there and I keep not fulfilling that....but this year...yeah....

Sorry, subverting the thread here.

Is anyone willing to collect some e-mail addresses and be the official "Alberta show alert"? People who want to let all those who might be interested could just contact use them as a contact then.

Just a thought.

Greg

grnddwn · 02-13-2003, 01:37 AM

I've been to Three Hills every year since 92 theres usually about 1200 to 1500 vehicles there. A good friend of mine does the cruise calander for edmonton and alberta so if anyone wants to know whats up just drop me an email and i'll let them know.

69 Short Fleet · 02-13-2003, 01:52 AM

I think my truck will be done in time but my bank acc. might not be LOL!!! Next year sounds more relalistic for me but you never know, later Doug

Canada20 · 02-13-2003, 02:04 PM

Anyone going to the Red Deer swap meet on March 1st?
