La Storia Abarth
Abarth & Co was founded on 31 March 1949. Carlo Abarth started working together with his friend Guido Scagliarini. Carlo Abarth had taken over the Northern Italian car make Cisitalia, including a number of finished and unfinished Cisitalias, along with the remnants of the company.
Immediately after the acquisition, Abarth and Scagliarini took over the racing team “Scuderia Abarth” and proceeded to take part at the next Mille Miglia race of 1949 with Tazio Nuvolari and Felice Bonetto in particular as drivers. The car driven by Guido Scaglarini himself came 5th in the final ranking.
More than 50 clubs
The Antwerp Classic Salon has already been the top meeting point for Belgian – and now also several Dutch – old-timer clubs, for 43 years. We offer them Hall 1 completely free of charge.
All the clubs put a lot of effort into the (themed) decoration of their stand and the most beautiful collection of cars belonging to their members are on display at the Antwerp Expo.
They participate in the club competition in which the winners receive large cash prizes. In collaboration with the B.F.O.V. the 3 most beautiful cars on the club stands are chosen.
The Antwerp Classic Salon and the Corona Virus
In light of the global impact of the Corona Virus, we consulted with the competent authorities and the management of Antwerp Expo and concluded that the 43rd Antwerp Classic Salon will open from Friday 6th of March to Sunday 8th of March.
The organization of the Antwerp Classic will take extra necessary hygiene measures to minimize the risk of contamination.
Het Antwerp Classic Salon en het Coronavirus
In tegenstelling tot de annulering van andere grote evenementen in de landen rondom ons wegens het Corona-virus, zal het 43ste Antwerp Classic Salon wel degelijk doorgaan van vrijdag 6 maart tot en met zondag 8 maart.
In overleg met de bevoegde instanties en het management van Antwerp Expo zal de organisatie van het Antwerp Classic Salon de nodige maatregelen nemen op hygiënisch vlak om het besmettingsrisico zoveel mogelijk in te dijken.
