NCRS - 2015 - Lakeland, FL (PICS)
Hi All,
I had a chance to check out the 2015 NCRS goings-on in Lakeland, FL, today. It's the first NCRS event I've attended so I'm really not sure of what all is going on. The few groups of cars in the hangar are, according to one owner, cars waiting to be judged on Saturday. The rest of the several acres of Corvette happenings appear to be vendors, Corvette flea markets, Corvettes for sale and dozens and dozens of parked Corvettes.
Following are some 30 pics I took, today, and will probably go back up with my club, Suncoast Corvette Association, on Saturday. Oh, as you'll see, I can't walk by a Resto-Mod without a few pics! Enjoy...

By the way, the several Corvette Restoration/Resto-Mod companies I talked to, have no interest in working on a C4. My question was simple: "How much to swap an LS3 into my '96 C4?"
Their collective answers boiled down to something like, "We can't charge enough money to warrant all the headaches we'll face working on a C4." They were nice about it... they just collectively don't want our business!
