The Reb Concours will take place on October 6th and 7th in the most exclusive Course in Italy “Golf Roma Acquasanta”. It is the first international concours reserved to classic cars dedicated to Emotion. People of high standing from the world of institutions, diplomacy, art, cinema, literature, fashion, music, architecture, and journalism will award prizes to the winners of each category.
Judges will not base awards on stringent adherence to originality, perfect restoration, or the rarity of the model. Such is the spirit and the birth of a concours dedicated to 60 beautiful vehicles produced between the early 1900s up to 1970 having Rome as backdrop.
The city of Rome fascinated, earliest ‘900, the English diplomacy wishing to practice golf in the Capital of Italy. The English and Americans diplomats asked to Prince Torlonia an apposite area for the purpose and obtained the Acquasanta, along the Via Appia, with buildings on the grounds dating back to the 15th century, with a 360° view of Rome from the Claudio aqueduct on one side, to the Cecilia Metella mausoleum on the other, all the way up to St. John’s Basilica in Laterano and the Vatican dome of Saint Peter’s.
Ambassadors, nobility, State personalities made the Acquasanta an exclusive and very stylish place.
The vehicles in competition for the prize “Bella come Roma” will exhibit on this suggestive green platform close to the historic club house. The prize will be awarded by the president of the jury Jill Morris, ambassador of the UK in Italy. The other members of the jury will award the single categories. The Reb Concours will be inaugurated by the Ambassador of USA in Italy Lewis Eisenberg together with the Italian and American ambassadors of the Holy See Pietro Sebastiani and Callista Gingrich.
The main aim of the exhibition is to donate the proceeds to the purchase of food stamps for the needy people of St. Peter’s Course, the most ancient and important voluntary association that depends on the Holy See, born in Rome in 1869.
