Welcome to the NCRS Texas Chapter
Who we are....
The
NCRS Texas Chapter was founded by local members of the National Corvette
Restorers Society. Our mission is to promote the
restoration, preservation, history and enjoyment of the Chevrolet Corvette.
Membership in the Texas Chapter is available to all current members of the
NCRS national organization. If you already own a Corvette, or are planning to purchase
one and would like to know more about the
NCRS and our Texas
chapter, feel
free to contact us.
The Experience...
I grew up in a small town in southern
West Virginia. The
population of Beckley was about 19,000.
There was only one 1963 coupe.
When I saw it, I vowed to have one someday.
As I was closing in on my 60th
birthday I contacted D&A Corvette in Gillespie, IL to build my SWC.
Many of my friends had the same dream and
I don’t know anyone else who was successful.
Some were sent to Viet Nam and never came back.
I think about them sometimes.
This photo of my car was taken in front of
Woodrow Wilson High School in Beckley, WV where I graduated in 1965.
One of the places
we frequented was King Tut drive-in.
It’s still operating.
I went there, had a hot dog and took this photo.
This car has
received chapter, regional and national Top Flight awards.
