After a long pause due to the current pandemic, the world is slowly returning to normal life. With this comes the opportunity to meet again with colleagues and friends with a passion for historic cars. The first such opportunity is the Brno Revival, which will take place this year Saturday 20.6.2020<\/strong> at the Brno exhibition grounds<\/strong>.
We will also be happy to take advantage of this opportunity and come to Brno with two Delahaye cars that competed in the Monte Carlo Rally. Come see the car he raced himself Louis Chiron.<\/strong>
The site will be open to the public on Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Those of you who can't make it to the event can look forward to the photos from the event, which you can find on our www.auto-veteran.com<\/a> in the News section.
See you in Brno!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

1952 Delahaye 235 by Antem ex-1953 Rally Monte Carlo Car<\/h3>\n
\n

Engine:<\/strong> Inline six-cylinder OHV, 3557 cm3
Body:<\/strong> Coach by Antem
Year of manufacture:<\/strong> 1952<\/p>\n

Since the 1950s, the Dunlop company has been developing a new type of tire, which was decided to be tested in the demanding conditions of the Monte Carlo Rally competition. Roger Crovetto and Julio Quinlin, who already had a lot of experience with this rally, were chosen as the crew. The testing took place in secret, and as a car they chose one of the best sports cars of the time, the Delahaye 235 with a body from the French coachbuilder Antem. The car completed the rally and was subsequently sold into private hands. In 1958 it was sold again to the USA. Here it was bought by the inventor and sculptor Mr. La Haye (inventor of the explosive screw used to separate the individual stages of the rockets of the US space program). Mr. La Haye owned the car throughout his life and
it is now in its original never-renovated and fully functional condition.
This is a unique opportunity to own a car with a perfect racing history and the opportunity to participate in the most important events.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
