The Belgian edition of InterClassics at Brussels Expo (16-18 November) celebrated the 60th anniversary of the World Expo, held at the same site. Indeed, the now-famous 335ft high, nine-sphere structure called the Atomium, built for the 1958 Brussels World’s Fair, as it was also known, still looms large as you arrive.
As part of this theme, the ‘Cars of ’58’ exhibit was on a four-lane road (above), bisecting Hall 5, and included an Alpine A106, an Opel Olympia Rekord, a Peugeot 203, a Jag MkVIII and a very lovely droptop Lancia Aurelia.
And, to complement the cars of 1958, period memorabilia was also on show, thanks to the Belgian Vintage Vehicles Association.
