History
The genesis of NGCA occurred in 1971 when two friends and Corvette enthusiasts - Peter Carey and Greg Hopf recruited other Corvette owners in the Morris County area. It grew into an organized club, becoming incorporated May 18, 1973.
Who we are
NGCA is a social club whose common thread is an interest and enjoyment of America's Sport Car, the Chevrolet Corvette. We are one of the largest Corvette clubs in the state with members living throughout New Jersey and beyond comprising over 140 households and over 180 Corvettes representing every generation in conditions ranging from project cars to Bloomington Gold and NCRS Top-Flight. Our Corvettes include big blocks, small blocks, rare Malcolm Konner Editions, Z06s, Grand Sports and ZR1's. A number of our cars have appeared in or been featured in various Corvette magazines. The Club and many members belong to the National Corvette Museum.
What we do
Club activities include fun runs, overnight trips, a club picnic, participating in Corvettes at Carlisle, car shows and cruise nights. Throughout the year we enjoy social lunches, dinners and many other events where members can gather and have fun. An awards dinner is held each year as well. Each year we hold a charity car show to raise money for a variety of charities (see below). We've been running this event for over 45 years and have a large following of show participants. Throughout the year, we collect items for donation to those in need within the local communities.
When and where we meet
Meetings are held at 7:30 PM on the second Wednesday of each month from March through November at the Morris Plains VFW Post #3401, located at 45 Tabor Road, Morris Plains, NJ 07950. Meeting content can include information regarding NGCA and non-NGCA events, tech sessions, guest speakers, buy/sell/swap and more.
You are cordially invited to attend any of our meetings and learn about our club.
Join other Corvette enthusiasts just like yourself and become part of our growing community.
Charities We Support
Since its founding in 1971, Natural Glass Corvette Association has continually utilized the popularity of America's Sports Car in combination with the dedicated efforts of its members to support charities on both a local and national basis.
We learned long ago about the strength in numbers when it comes to promoting a worthy cause and NGCA has been extremely successful in generating awareness to the public who shares in our love of cars. Our annual open car show relies on donations from spectators and registration fees from show car attendees to generate revenue that is distributed each year to charities that we choose based on need and organizational stability.
We extend an invitation to all who wish to join our organization. You do not have to own a Corvette to be part of our car family. You only have to love people, the Corvette and the benefits that will come from being a part of an organization that helps improve the lives of others.
