For 28 years Portland Transmission Warehouse has hosted it’s Spring Classic auto gathering event here in our parking lot and adjoining streets.  The event has grown from just 28 cars in 1983 to 550 plus registered cars in 2010 and many, many more unregistered.  It is a free event, with Portland Transmission ballcaps and dashplaques provided to all registered vehicles, and complimentary coffee, cookies, hot dogs, and soda pop for everyone in attendance.  Locally crafted awards are presented by family members in a memoriam to honor special automotive pioneers at a ceremony that concludes the event.  Always held the Saturday before Mother’s Day, it brings together the greatest gathering of auto enthusiasts with their favorite “rides” to renew old and make new friendships.

Here are a few links of this past summer’s show:
