Hi from Nat’l. Chevy, Things are busy here. It looks like our new catalog and new website are perking things up. It took months to get the new website up – we actually had to switch web companies mid-stream because the one we’ve been with just came up with excuse after excuse. It’s done and working now, so check it out if you’re interested. If not, the catalog works too! The weather has been great here. The dandelions are blooming as are the tulips. It looks like grass cutting will begin for me next weekend. I hope the mower starts – I haven’t tried it yet, but I put a new battery in last year, so it should work. I still need pictures to keep the newsletter going. Please send me actual pictures as they are easier to work with than stuff that is emailed. The pages can be laid out with color pictures in hand, so you can see what the pages will be like. I would appreciate the help! Don’t forget to send in your hidden contest entries each month. You could win a $75.00 gift certificate towards a parts purchase. Also – use the want ads – they work! Time to go – hope to have more news next month. ‘Til next month......

I found this 1950 Deluxe 2-dr. in an old barn back in the 70’s. I purchased it from a man who bought it new and had owned the car for 32 years now. I’ve been putting on a few parts from N.C.A. and still have a few more to go. They are good people to work with. Thank you for all that you do.

Thank you,Bob LoveBourbonnais, IL
