:: About ::


The Merrickville Cruise & Shop was started by Bruce Stackhouse, Bruce Scott & Frank Deguire in 2001 as a means of enjoying automobiles, having fun and generating business in the town Merrickville. Since the show's conception in 2001, it has grown steadily each year - reaching a record high of over 600 vehicles in 2005!

Bruce Stackhouse
Bruce owns a fully restored 1967 Chevy Nova SS, which he restored himself and is currently working on building a hotrod which may be ready for this year's show.

Bob Duncan
Bob is a great asset to the show - he takes care of parking and traffic. Bob owns a '55 Chev Panel Wagon, which he and his brother-in-law are restoring.

Bill Kenny
Bill is another integral part of the show, taking care of vendors and the ever expanding community center area. Bill is always had an interest in old cars, antiques, and nostalgia and presently owns Whistle Post Antiques & Nostalgia in Merrickville.
