New Biggar owner!

Hello all, I've been stealthily scanning your forums and how-
to's for the last week to better educate myself before buying. We pulled the trigger today, so we are the proud new owners of a 1978 Biggar! She's in need of some TLC, but we love her. I've got a few manuals that are not in the document center too, so I'll make sure to scan them and upload them in the week or so.

Congrats on your find. We'd all appreciate more pics as you spiff her up.

Nice tug, too.

Biggar not Bigger?

So, was the Biggar made in Biggar, SK?

Being a Saskatcewanian I know there is such a place.

I like the way the squared-off lines of the trailer go with the Ridgeline's...

...maybe do a quick repaint of the lower panel of the trailer to match the truck - ? : )

Thanks, will do!
My understanding is these trailers were built in Winnipeg by Bob Biggar who used to work at Boler. Perhaps he's from SK.

It definitely needs paint! I agree it seems to match the Ridgeline's shape well. We're planning to paint in the spring depending on cash flow, so lots of time to decide on colour.
