How all owns a C2 that has a sticker in your windshield like this one? If your C2 is not a Top Flight or Second Flight or a third flight, maybe your Corvette should have a window sticker like this one has. I personally think it is pretty cool. It tells people that you can not afford or do not want your C2 Corvette to be all original. Maybe you bought your Corvette without the original motor or it has fender flairs and that is what you want or like. If so then this window sticker should maybe be on your C2 Corvette, Remember FREE SPEECH.

My car has deeply personal meaning to me. I don't care about NCRS either way - if that gives guys a boner - great. If not, great. Why would I give a ****?
I bought my car at a swap meet for $12K. It was a bad idea. It was trashed. It burned up its engine harness a week after I bought it. The chassis was almost rusted in two. It had Mexican style diamond tuck for the interior.
My wife was diagnosed with cancer and I built the car in 18 months while I cared for her (she beat it). My cousin (a remarkable chassis engineer and GM Master Tech) helped me build the chassis and suspension. He died three weeks from brain cancer after the car was done.
10 years ago I was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease and a form of incurable Leukemia. While getting my chemo (going on 9 years of it every six weeks) my car was hit and run in the parking lot of the cancer center. That was two years ago and I'm just now finishing up the resulting work (not just new paint - going after lots of details to make it a better car).
Almost nothing original on the car when I bought it. I've gone broke twice while somehow keeping it (from medical expenses and evil insurance companies) doing every bolt and washer myself. Sometimes it's my only reason to get out of bed. Other times I think I'll never have it on the road again.
I've bled for this car. I've sweated. I've scrimped and saved. I've met amazing people and formed friendships with true experts on this forum that helped me build my dream car.
At the same time it's helped me keep my sanity during times when I had no hope.
From the Dewitt's radiator and DS Speed kit to the Koni shocks, Demon carb, 65 Muncie, 70 LT1 to the composite spring, modern gauges, power disk brakes and more, there is only ONE Corvette like mine and I love it.
If you put NCRS into google you will see that many many companies and other things come up that have nothing to do with Corvettes or restoring Corvettes. So I would think that the NCRS as most Corvette people know it have nothing to say about anyone or any company using the letters NCRS for what ever they want to. I do not think that anyone has a patent on those 4 letters. It could stand for New Car Race Shop or anything else.

Don't bet the farm on it pal...
Some of it involves the context of the use of the acronym.
Disney has busted some street vendors locally because the balloon animals they were selling looked too "Mickey Mouse"...
However, the NCRS is a non-profit, "social club" so their incentive to come after you may be much less...
Any C2 is good in my book. NCRS is great and has great people in there . NOn NCRS is great. Restomads with LS3s are great. To each his own. Who are we to judge (no pun intended)
lets not divide each other on the forum. If this forum closes down I sell my C2 as I won't be able to fix it anymore
Don't be clashing with egos.
Perfect people need their space. I would not give them the satisfaction of displaying their " patient protected fancy illustrated sticker " depicting perfection. Many throw money their way hoping to ride the wave of glory. Pretenders at best, some with credible knowledge . A title is important to distinguish amateur from de professionals.
Send your money, buy the books, literature, learn the lingo, believe the masters ( judges ) and hope for fulfillment. Grass hopper, one day you will be the grand master.
