Neil d’Autremont, from Sidedraught City has organized our Fall Garage Collection Tour. One of the finest local collections is the Ron Tonkin collection! This is a self guided tour with our host Art Smith, curator and former general manager of Ron Tonkin Gran Turismo. We have to cap the attendees at 25 for this event so you will need to sign up quickly. Also, because of its location in SE Portland, we will only share the address with the actual attendees and ask that everyone show up promptly at 10:30 so that the doors remain closed. There is no charge for this event.

This is a fantastic collection that Mr. Tonkin acquired over the many years he was the Ferrari dealer in Portland. Mr. Tonkin was one of the few collectors to have a 288GTO, F40, F50, Enzo stable. Pictures are allowed for personal use only and no social media posts will be allowed for security and safety purposes.

Neil will be present to act as a host for the Club. If you have any questions, please contact Neil at: neil@sidedraughtcity.com or 503-548-6334.
