4:01
to Corvette today buddy Steve thank you for inviting me to join you on your podcast I've been a big- time fan for a
4:09
long time and I really appreciate the opportunity to visit with you today thank you buddy and I appreciate you taking the time to be on the show first
4:16
of all let's get to know you a little bit better Tony how long have you been into Corvettes Steve I'm in my 60s and
4:23
speaking of the 60s back in the 1960s I was just a little kid and I remember one
4:29
of the the neighbors up the street had worked at a grocery store and had purchased I'll never forget it a 1965
4:36
Corvette he would drive it up and down the streets and I would come out and look at it all the time and it just hooked me right there and from that
4:42
moment on I was definitely a Corvette guy yeah now did you come from a car family my dad liked vintage cars he
4:49
liked sports cars the good news was he always liked really cool sports cars the bad news was he was not mechanically
4:56
inclined at all and it seemed like whatever he bought in terms of a sports car was always in the restoration of
5:02
repair shop so my mom was more like you know it's time to get a practical family car but yeah I did grow up around sports
5:09
cars and so that did have some influence on me that's really good now were there other cars that maybe caught your
5:14
attention as a young boy besides Corvettes you know anyone that's a baby boomer that's in their 60s can remember
5:21
back in the days when we were young and we would see a car driving down the street and you'd be with a buddy and
5:26
you'd say oh that's a 69 because of this Fe feature that's a 67 or whatever so we
5:32
all grew up with these muscle cars and sports cars and so definitely I would
5:37
see some of those iconic cars from the 60s and 50s and early 70s that would
5:43
catch our eyes and we would always be enamored by these really cool cars those cars back then just seemed to have a
5:49
better more unique styling to the ones that we see on the roads today that were designed more by Engineers for fuel
5:56
economy standards but yeah there was a lot more interest in and The Styling back then yeah the 60s were a great time
6:03
for cars especially 1969 right now tell me what your ow moment was when it comes to Corvettes
6:09
Tony well as I mentioned earlier I think it was my neighbor's car really you know
6:15
the Corvette no question it's America sports car back in the day it was the most unique looking car in the world on
6:23
the streets where I grew up in Kansas City and I think seeing that car go up and down the street and looking at it
6:29
just made such a vivid impression on me at age eight or nine I couldn't imagine what it would take to be able to own a
6:36
car like that but it certainly set a goal for me that one day I would and I think that probably was the oh wow
6:42
moment in my life with Corvettes it just stamped me right there I just love the cars absolutely you know I think that
6:48
when I saw the 63 split window Corvette that was my ohow moment it's like wow
6:54
that thing looks nothing like anything else on the road I want to own one of those when I can drive and get a
6:59
driver's license yeah Steve you and I have the same DNA when it comes to cars you know whenever you would talk to
7:05
someone about the old stingrays the first thing they ask is Oh you mean the old split windows everybody knows what a
7:11
split window is and that's really where I'm coming from too so is the C2 your favorite generation of Corvette then
7:18
yeah it is Steve you know Chevrolet has been making Corvette since 1953 and they've been broken down by Generations
7:25
the first generation is known as the c1s and that's from 1953 through
7:30
1962 then there was some Dynamic changes made with the Corvette starting in 1963
7:37
performance improvements styling differences and so forth and there's just something about the c2s that were
7:43
made from 1963 to 1967 that really is what does it for me
7:48
I love the old c2s the original stingrays I think they are the most iconic of all the Stingrays I agree with
7:55
you buddy well Tony let's take our first break and when we come back we're going to talk about you and the ncrs that's

10:37
is Tony Stein one of the directors of the ncrs the National Corvette restorer Society we are celebrating 50 years of
10:44
the ncrs in this second segment we're going to talk to Tony more about how he got into the ncrs Tony tell me the story
10:51
about how you found the ncrs and when did you join well in my early 20s I
10:57
decided it was time and I finally had a little bit of extra money and I decided I want to go and buy a Corvette and so I
11:04
searched I went through the classified ads of a local Kansas City newspaper and I found a 1966 Corvette that really
11:12
looked interesting to me and I went and looked at it talked to the owner decided to buy it and finally I was in the
11:18
Corvette ownership Club but I didn't want to enjoy the hobby on my own and so
11:23
I started going to different car shows and there was a particular Corvette only car show that was one of the local
11:30
shopping malls and I went there and I looked at some of the other corbetts that were on display and I started
11:35
talking to some of the owners there and they had mentioned to me that there was this group that was originated out of
11:41
Cincinnati Ohio called the ncrs the national corbette restorer society and
11:46
they explained to me that the ncrs was really devoted to the originality of
11:52
these cars in other words the ncrs was devoted to the preservation and
11:57
restoration of older Corvettes and at the time they were really just accepting
12:02
C1 Corvettes and they were thinking about adding C2 so you know that this was a long time ago I think Steve this
12:09
was around 1980 or so okay so I started investigating this ncrs group that I
12:17
kept hearing about and it isn't like today where you pick up your cell phone and you do a Google search of ncrs and
12:24
you have your answer within about 10 seconds it took some time to be able to find the contact information and so
12:31
forth eventually I was able to get an application I sent my application in and
12:36
I officially became a member of the ncrs on May 1st 1981 wow so my 43rd year of membership
12:44
has coming up later this spring congratulations buddy that's outstanding now for those that are listening or
12:50
watching Corvette today that may not be familiar with the ncrs tell us a little bit about the ncrs and what its purpose
12:57
is well Steve the CRS technically is a 501 C7 Club organization it's a hobby
13:05
Club it's a non for-profit organization that's organized nationally we have nearly 12,000 members throughout the
13:12
United States Canada Europe Australia it isn't just an American society it's the
13:20
love of the Corvette throughout the world and the society is really devoted to the purposes of providing a venue to
13:27
educate owners on what their cars looked like when they left the factory
13:33
delivered to the selling dealer the dealer prepared it for delivery to the owner and so the ncrs is all about that
13:41
objective the really neat thing about the ncrs is that we're organized not just as members but we also have local
13:48
chapters throughout the United States for instance I'm out of Metropolitan Kansas City we have a Kansas City ncrs
13:55
chapter where we have over 90 members we get together on a monthly basis we have car judging events and there are
14:02
chapters throughout the United States so it's not as though you join this National Organization and you're left by
14:08
yourself to figure it out on your own we have chapters that organize judging events we also have Regional judging
14:16
events and we have a national judging event that is usually hosted every summer we call it the ncrs Corvette
14:22
Nationals and the best judges the most knowledgeable judges in the Corvette hobby will be there to help help
14:29
evaluate members cars and it's a very extensive process to get a car judged
14:34
but it's definitely worth it because we have found owners that have their cars judged often times the value of their
14:41
cars increase because they're able to achieve some of our Awards the ncrs has
14:47
an extensive publication process where the best people in the hobby are
14:52
involved with helping to write technical information and judging guys for different years for instance we have
14:59
judging guides from 1953 through 2007 wow it goes through the various
15:05
attributes of a car from operations interior exterior the mechanical section
15:11
and the chassis section many of these judging guides can be over 300 pages
15:17
long they're very extensive the ncrs is the one and only organization that
15:22
publishes these types of judging guides we also are the organization that trains
15:28
not only the judges for the ncrs but many of the judges that also judge at other corbette organizations were
15:34
trained by the ncrs so it really begins with the ncrs in terms of understanding
15:40
these Classic Automobiles understanding what they look like when they left the factory now
15:46
there's different reasons why people get into the Corvette hobby it isn't just what the ncrs is all about and that's
15:53
fine I mean if someone wants to buy a Corvette and they want to make modifications there's nothing wrong with
15:59
that in fact we have a section in the ncrs called Concourse judging where we welcome cars for judging that have
16:05
specifically had modifications had body changes have new types of engines put in
16:11
areas that are Chrome that were never Chrome from the factory we do have judging to encourage cars that have been
16:17
modified and sometimes heavily modified and we do offer judging for that but our
16:23
bread and potatoes is really what the cars looked like when they left the factory delivered to the dealer the
16:29
dealer prepped it for the owner what did it look like when the dealer handed the keys to the very first owner and the
16:36
owner left the parking lot that day yeah that's really what we're all about and
16:41
you will not find a more helpful bunch out there to help an owner understand what that car looked like when it was
16:47
brand new that's awesome talk about some of the awards that people can win from the ncrs and how they are achieved
16:54
that's a great question Steve it begins with what's called our flight program
16:59
we will evaluate a car for judging with 10 judges think about that wow there are
17:05
five sections that we evaluate when a car is being judged for flight Awards
17:11
operations interior exterior mechanical and Chassis two judges per section and
17:18
it takes about 45 minutes for each group of judges to evaluate each of those five
17:24
sections it's very comprehensive and the goal here is to achieve a score or an
17:30
evaluation that comes close to what the car looked like when the car left the factory as I've described a little while
17:37
ago it doesn't have to be exactly the same for instance based on our Matrix judging system that we originally
17:43
developed for judging I can talk about that later we have in mind what a car
17:49
should have looked like when it left the factory in order to achieve what we call a Top Flight award you have to score
17:55
within 94% of what the car would have looked like theoretically when it left the factory so in order to achieve a
18:02
blue ribbon Top Flight you have to score 94% or better in order to achieve a pop
18:09
flight award there are a couple other flight Awards there's a second flight award which doesn't quite make the 94%
18:16
criteria and below that we have a third flight those are just different evaluation standards on how close a car
18:24
looks compared to how the car we believe looked when it left the factory so that's how we're evaluating it based on
18:31
appearance and condition the two criteria that we will look at when a car is judged for flight judging is number
18:37
one originality and number two condition and when we evaluate originality we set
18:43
it up on objective standards where we're looking at configuration the date of a particular subassembly or part if it's
18:51
complete if it's installed correctly and if it's got the correct finish so we call that cdci as part of our OB
18:58
objective standard for evaluating the originality of a car and then the second area would be the condition itself we
19:06
encourage people to drive their cars and I've been to some car shows often times
19:11
other Corvette shows and they tend to be more of a show and shine type evaluation
19:16
and I've been kind of amused that sometimes a judge at a show and shine will give a deduction because there's a
19:22
little bit of dust on a brake caliper we don't care if there's a little bit of dust on a brake caliper we want you to
19:28
to drive your cars in fact we have an award system that if you drive your car from home to a judging event we will
19:36
give you points for driving wow so it's not as though we just want to have
19:42
trailer Queens meaning the only driving that a car does is from the owner's garage to his trailer to the judging
19:50
event we really encourage people to drive their cars honestly the more you drive your car the better it tends to
19:56
operate the ncrs is all about people not just restoring and preserving their cars
20:01
to make them look as though they did when they left the factory we want us to continue to enjoy our cars too yeah What
20:08
attracted you to the ncrs Tony maybe it's because I'm a bit of a history nut but I really like the idea of what the
20:15
cars look like when they were made back in the day there's definitely a Nostalgia with that and I think it's
20:21
really just going back to that earlier time that we remember in our lives and I
20:26
think that's really why a lot of people collect anything whether it's cars or coins or whatever it just reminds them
20:34
of a time in history that they really relate to and they don't want to let go of those times and I think that's
20:40
probably the reason why I've really been attracted to the ncrs and I would also
20:45
say this and I mentioned earlier we have about 12,000 members and what we like to
20:50
say is we come to these events for the cars but we stay for our friends and
20:56
I've made some of the best friends that I've ever made in my life in this Hobby
21:02
and I don't know that I'll live longer because of this hobby but I know I'll live happier absolutely right that's
21:08
really what keeps me in this is all of the great friendships it doesn't matter what they do for a living during the
21:14
daytime we've got successful people from all walks of life but when we get
21:20
together we put our suits and ties off to the side or our lunch pales or whatever and all of a sudden we're just
21:26
Corvette buddies and we love the camaraderie and the fellowship and that's really to me what it's all about
21:32
and that's what the ncrs brings is the camaraderie with these great friends yeah you're absolutely right buddy and
21:39
now 40 plus years into this you're the region 7 director aren't you I am and I'm really honored to have been elected
21:47
to the region 7 directorship and let me just kind of explain what that means the ncrs has a national board of directors
21:53
there are nine board seats that are all elected they're all set up by geography
21:58
so for instance region 7even over which I represent includes the states of Missouri Kansas Arkansas Oklahoma Texas
22:07
and Louisiana those Six States and there's about a thousand ncrs members in
22:12
region 7 my term is for three years I have some ideas on helping to move the ncrs forward as you mentioned at the
22:19
beginning the ncrs is celebrating this year its 50th Anniversary but that doesn't mean that we have to think as
22:25
though it's still the 1970s and we've got some Dynamic plans to cause the ncrs
22:31
to continue to thrive in the future as we move forward and I'm really excited about the opportunity to participate in
22:37
the national board of directors yeah that's really cool and you have a specialty what is your generation
22:42
specialty c2s in general but I'm on the national judging teams for 1965 and
22:49
1966 I've co-authored sections of the judging guys for 1965 and
22:56
1966 I'm the guy that gets underneath the car and looks at the chassis and so forth I'm the one that gets to sleep on
23:03
the job underneath the car nice I like that that's awesome well buddy let's take our final break when we come back

them of a time that they would like to buy a car from those times as I talked about earlier when I was a kid and I saw
26:47
the neighbor up the street that had a 1965 Corvette just because the cars look good doesn't mean that they are
26:54
mechanically fit or that they are everything that they appear to be visually I mean we see these cars go
27:01
through the auctions and so forth why does one car that's a particular year go for a lot more money than another car
27:08
that's of the same year I mean what's the difference between those cars they may both be a 1967 Corvette or 1965
27:16
Corvette and you'll see 165 go across and it hammers for a lot more money than
27:21
the next 65 that goes through why is that well it's because you get into
27:27
situations where there's a lot more to these cars than a fancy shiny paint job we don't know about the mechanics of the
27:34
car the fit the finish the originality all of those things and so what the ncrs
27:39
does when they provide their flight Awards and other Awards is that it's really kind of like the Good
27:45
Housekeeping seal of approval with these cars you've got the best brightest most
27:50
knowledgeable judges in the entire world will look at a car say at a national
27:55
event and if they say this car as a Top Flight car you can rest assured that it
28:01
has passed the strictest of scrutiny when it comes to evaluating these cars so when an individual takes the time to
28:09
buy the car have the car restored and that's a lot of expense too and then
28:14
they pay for the transportation to take it to a regional or one of our national
28:19
events and they achieve one of these top Awards a Top Flight award or even more
28:24
difficult to obtain a Dun award which is a whole different level of an award you
28:30
know that that car has been scrutinized by the very best judges in the world and
28:35
given the top Awards that's awesome and that's the reason why our Awards often
28:41
and usually do add value to the cars because the more risk that a buyer feels
28:46
like he's going to encounter in buying a car the less he's going to want to pay for the car yeah and conversely the less
28:53
risk that you feel like you're facing with buying a car that's got the blue Top Flight award the more confidence
29:00
that the buyer is going to have that the car is original and correct and operates
29:05
correctly and that's why you begin to see these higher and higher prices at
29:10
auctions and through Private Sales for cars that have our top Awards yeah that's the value component of what the
29:17
ncrs brings that's awesome Tony talk about what's planned for the big 50th anniversary of the ncrs we have an event
29:25
