This place has been popular with cruisers since the beginning of time...

Wascana Centre is a 930-hectare (9.3 km2/2,300 acre/3.6 mi2) urban park built around Wascana Lake in Regina, Saskatchewan. The park is designed around the Saskatchewan Legislative Building and Wascana Lake.

^^^ "Versatile" script on the door. ^^^ Versatile is a Canadian tractor and implement manufacturer. I understand the truck was built and given away to commemorate the company's 50th anniversary.

The rest are in no particular order.

I've talked with this character in the past. I can't recall the details, but it's a rare animal, one of 27 (?) special ordered for a rental company.

I shot this same truck three years ago at a gas station. It had a vintage M/T crossram on it then. [S

I went to school with this guy and our kids went to school with each other as well. We live in the same neighbourhood 1000' apart today. He also has a gorgeous '67 Chevelle ragtop - big block - 4 speed - BLACK.

Another dude I know. He's had this car since high school. (35+ years) It's a '66 Acadian Canso Sport Deluxe... rare Canadian car, similar to Nova SS, immaculate in every way!

Cool cars & a nice park. It's nice to know the back story on some of the cars. Thanks Doc.

BTW, I was watching drag racing You Tubes one night and I saw a car named, you ready for it? Dr. Crankenstein.
 
It's my pleasure to post and I'm glad you like 'em. :D

Bob: Some years ago, maverick posted a T altered with my handle on it. I used to have it on file, but it probably burned with Photosuckit . :mad:

A friend of ours started this meet and 2020 marks his 25th. I was there for the first one and I've been to a few since, but not this year.

My good friend Richie did attend, however, and he brought us back some pictures...

The speedster is ultra cool. As is the RPU, and...and...and.

Sifting through my photo files, I had this group buried deep because they're bad.

Back in August, I attended this "Covid Cruise" and totally blew the mission. I started in a good spot, but some guys were coming in too hot to capture. So I found another vantage point, but the distance and the sun negated my camera flash. Once I realized my stupid mistake, it was too late to reposition so I shut the camera off and sulked in the corner. :mad:

My apologies for the crappy pics. I should have had 100+ decent shots because the event was very well attended...
