#MCT39
Monte Carlo Tribute 1939 is an expedition in tribute to Polish drivers who took part in the Monte Carlo Rally.
We are planning a trip from Tallinn to Monte Carlo (approx. 3,500 km) following the historical route taken by Tadeusz Marek and Witold Pajewski in 1939 during the RMC. Team #122 drove an Opel Olympia (OL38) in that rally and we will also drive such an Opel. Our car is 90% original, manufactured in January 1939 in Rüsselsheim and sold in May of the same year in Stockholm. It is a full matching numbers car in really excellent condition. Follow our journey!
