Supporting Those Who Support Us:
This Week; NPD, Camaro Central and Phoenix Graphix
Over the past several weeks we have discussed the importance of sponsorship when it comes to the ongoing success of the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals show. Of course, having sponsorship is a key ingredient, but something we pride ourselves in at the MCACN show is having the honor of working with the absolute best in the industry in so many areas of our hobby. This week we'd like to talk about three of our Official Sponsors that primarily concentrate on the factory stock Muscle Cars that play such a huge role in what we do.
National Parts Depot: To be able to celebrate 50 years in the business is truly a milestone. We have seen so many come and go. This year NPD is celebrating 50 years of serving the restoration hobby. What began in the basement of founder Jim Schmidt’s home has grown into four fully stocked distribution centers, packed with the highest quality parts. Through it all, NPD’s commitment to quality, service, speed, and value has never wavered. Still family-owned and enthusiast-owned, NPD understands your passion — and delivers. Fact; did you know Mr. Schmidt started with us by showing some of his own truly outstanding unrestored cars in our Vintage Certification area? There is a definite pattern among our Official Sponsors that shows they are not only successful business people, but true enthusiasts. Now, with huge warehouses in Florida, California, Michigan and North Carolina, they offer literally thousands of parts for your restoration. Whether you are working on a Ford or Mercury, a Mopar or a General Motors product, chances are they have what you need. To learn more and to get their brand specific catalogs, go to www.npdlink.com
Phoenix Graphix: As far as I'm concerned, when it comes to correct stripes and graphics for your Muscle Car, there is only one source: Phoenix Graphix. You know there must be a reason they have been around for over 40 years! "Any decal, any car, any year" is their motto and they mean it. Need the proper licensed decals for your Chevelle or 'cuda? They have them. They even have the right stuff for your American Motors Pacer! (and your SC/Rambler or AMX, of course). Phoenix Graphix is the go-to company for Professional, Correct and Official licensed Restoration Decals & Stripes. Famous people, Movie Stars, Museums, well-known companies, magazine publishers, book authors, MCACN regulars and even Hollywood Movie Producers all trust Phoenix Graphix to supply affordable, quality products. And best of all, they are all American made and they offer a no questions asked 30-day return policy. If you want the best and won't settle for the subpar products that are popping up, Phoenix Graphix is the one and only source for MCACN quality products. Check out www.phoenixgraphic.com for complete lists of their offerings and the full story of who they are.
Camaro Central: So if you are a Camaro enthusiast, you need to know these folks! At Camaro Central, (and their sister company Firebird Central), you'll find thousands of products from only the best manufacturers representing the highest quality in restoration and restyling components available. Camaro Central is the source for all your classic Camaro needs from 1967-2024. Again, we have a company that is run by enthusiasts, for enthusiasts. Hours are spent securing the best parts available from multiple sources. If you need anything from a quarter panel to the proper clip to secure one of the under hood hoses, chances are they'll have it. Based in Kentucky, they are ready to earn your business with knowledgeable staff that speaks our language. To learn more about Camaro Central and see thousands of parts, go to www.camarocentral.com. They also have some excellent Technical Installation Tips videos, with new ones posted on a regular basis.
Be safe, be nice and enjoy each and every day because none of us know what may be around the corner.
