cordially invites you to become a part of our splendid
fraternity of "roll-your-own" motorcar enthusiasts!

The NCKCC is a non-profit corporation dedicated to promoting technical assistance and family recreational activities for owners and builders of replicars of all varieties: kit cars, Shelby Cobra replicas, street rod reproductions, exoticar body conversions, et.al.. Whether you're a replicar buff or if you just yearn for yesteryear's wind-in-your-hair driving thrills, we hope you'll come to our next club event, and we'd like to have you join our group! Membership is open to all enthusiasts--owners and prospective owners alike--of these fun driving machines!

Our annual "Bash-by-the-Bay" handcrafted automobile concourse takes place every September, and draws motorcar enthusiasts from all over the nation and even overseas! It's held at the San Leandro Marina at the foot of Marina Boulevard (west of I-880) in San Leandro, California.

More stuff you should know about the NCKCC!

NCKCC mini-show
Walnut Creek, California
Annually in June
The NCKCC is geared to promote your learning more about replicars through sharing of personal experiences among members. We also promote your enjoyment of your vehicle through high profile endeavors such as concours shows, parades and rallys, complemented with social events that include trips, club gatherings, parties and rallys and general exchanges of ideas and experiences.
   
Members of the NCKCC collectively represent a broad range of knowledge and experience that you'll find to be invaluable as you build your car or as you start the process of deciding which kit or Cobra or streetrod manufacturer you will purchase from. Today you're faced with a broad selection of replicars that range greatly in quality of fit & finish, integrity of the manufacturer and ease of assembly... which is another reason why tapping into the resources of your fellow NCKCC members can return you big dividends. And you'll have great fun at the same time!

You can even get advice on how you can take professional-quality photographs to more effectively market (or show off) your vehicle. As a member you can also advertise your car in "The NCKCC News" newsletter for a very modest fee.

 

In summary, the NCKCC is an association of motorcar enthusiasts just like you, who enjoy creating and driving and displaying their own automobiles. It promotes social events and fun activities that are geared to include your family's participation. Membership dues are $24 per year. If you join mid-year you're levied only $2/month for the remaining months. Your membership benefits include a monthly newsletter and participation in all club events.
