Event: The National MVPA Convention
Date: 11/12/13-Aug-00
Location: Kansas City, MO
Description: The annual MVPA convention is an event many of our club members attend.  Held in a different location each year, many of the top restorations are present at this event.  In addition to a significant number of vendors and suppliers, there was an excellent representation of restored (professionally and motor pool) military vehicles.  

In all, we had about 5 members attend.  Some of the pictures below are representative of the vehicles, vendors of the show.

 Look for the National MVPA Convention to be in Dallas in 2002!
