Vincent, how late will you be there? I'm planning to go on Friday, but work will keep me at the coast till 16.00. Jurgen
My friend Jean Luc Dekrahe is putting that event together, you guys are lucky to get that in Bruxelles. He told me that even my pal Claude Dubois will be there to sign his book about his racing life. Belgium is a great country with fantastique drivers. Enjoy the show, I wish I could see it. Give me a "report" Ciao Roland F40LM
It's a Classic car exhibition, comparable to, for example, the one in Maastricht you visited last year. Lot of classics for sale, books, paintings, memorabilia, parts etcetera..... Not Ferrari and only Ferrari but Classic Cars in general. I love it.

i'll post some pictures tomorrow night or saterday morning, for those who want to know before going what there is to see. greetings, vincent
Was there this afternoon. In my eyes worth the visit. Star of the show : Ferrari 250 TR 59 Winner of Le Mans 1960 with Olivier Gendebien and Paul Frère. Car was brought over from a collector in America. Absolutely stunning piece of machinery, glorious. Had the chance to congratulate Paul Frère himself and thanked him for his great contribution in Ferrari history. Lancia-Ferrari D50 wasn't there today. 365 GTB/4 Daytona owned by a Belgian Ferrari collector. '91 Testarossa offered for sale at 55.000 Darkgrey and yellow 246 GT Dino for sale. '83 Competition 308 GT/Michelotto at stand of Fclub Gilles Villeneuve. For the rest the usual stuff, lots of paintings, books, models, parts. There is one Italian stand with very good, high quality Ferrari and Maserati related things for sale.
joren, and your pictures man ???? Here are some of mine, was really worth to be there, meeting Paul Frere in person, enjoy........
