Judging What You Love – The National Corvette Restorers Society 2022 Florida Regional Event

NRCS-2022

 

The NCRS (National Corvette Restorers Society) recently held an event in Lakeland Florida, February 24-26th.   Corvette enthusiasts from around the country gathered to share their admiration of this timeless, classic car.

According to their website at www.ncrs.org,  “The National Corvette Restorers Society is a community of dedicated Corvette Lovers. Our objective is the restoration, preservation, history and enjoyment of all Corvette models and configurations.”

With social gatherings, seminars and more throughout the year, including the yearly National Convention, enthusiasts share their love of Corvettes and the friendship and fellowship with each other.

Here at Eckler’s our team is the best in the business when it comes to knowing our brands - and they are also involved in the classic car communities they serve.     Our own Eckler’s Corvette Brand Manager, Tom Christmann is exactly that – an expert and an enthusiast.   With over 50 years in the hobby and professional industry, Tom specializes in 1963-64 Corvettes, but he has also owned and judged C1-C6 generations.

“I bought my first Corvette in 1969,” says Tom. “There is nothing like a Corvette, and the community of Corvette enthusiasts is like no other. Judging events gives me the absolute pleasure of seeing some amazing restoration work people have done on their vehicles, as well as meeting and making great friends.”

Tom joined the NCRS in 1978, only a few years after the organization was founded.   He is also a judge at the chapter, regional and national levels, and a retired Bloomington Gold judge.  NCRS judging is recognized as the world standard for determining originality, while recognizing overall excellence in areas such as preservation and restoration.    The NCRS also recognizes restomods, with their newest award in the Concours class, which considers condition.  All NCRS award categories and criteria can be seen on their website.

We’re excited to say that Tom was able to take some time from judging at the February event to snap and share great shots with you on our Facebook page in the gallery!

“I am looking forward to the 2022 NCRS Mobile Alabama National Convention this year running July 23-28th. I hope to see you there!”
