    NCRS Concours Judging

    What if your Corvette is not completely stock? NCRS's newest award is for those that are not factory original. Even "restomods" with or without body modifications may be entered in the Concours classes where items are judged solely on their condition, not whether Chevrolet installed them during that model year. Points are earned at each event toward an NCRS Concours Award. See a list of all of the NCRS awards and the criteria for you to earn them.
