This year, we celebrated our 30th anniversary in business alongside the 50th anniversary of the Lake Tahoe Concours d'Elegance. Packed with festivities, It was indeed a celebration worthy of the decades!
In honor of the Golden Anniversary, this year's Marque Class was 'Past Winners of the Overall Best of Show' award, making it a best of the best celebration.
