EVENT // SOVREN WRAP-UP DINNER @ PARK PLACE LTD.

Last weekend the Society of Vintage Racing Enthusiasts (SOVREN) held its end of year dinner at Park Place Ltd. in Bellevue, Washington.

As you can see, Park Place is a veritable Smörgåsbord of exotic and domestic automobiles.



This 1964 Shelby Cobra belongs to David Bingham, owner of Park Place Ltd. It is not only a well maintained example of an early Cobra, but has been outfitted with an original Paxton Supercharger and has seen plenty of track time.

Dinner was a sort of pot-luck style event, with each Guild member bringing a different dish. After gathering our grub, we all sat down to eat and share stories.

Following the meal we all had the pleasure of hearing renowned philanthropist, Phil Smart, speak about his experience as a volunteer at Seattle's Children's Hospital.

The evening concluded with the awarding of SOVREN's 'Guild Member of the Year' and 'Volunteer of the Year' awards.

SOVREN has done so much to promote not only vintage racing here in the Northwest, but Seattle's Children's Hospital and the incredible work they do. We would like to thank them for having us over for dinner and urge all of you in the NW to join the SOVREN Guild of Seattle's Children's Hospital!
