As usual, the 2017 Rallye Monte-Carlo Historique will be open to cars that took part in the actual event from 1955 until 1980

I know that the rules & regulations are not always that clear.
What they mean is you can enter in any vehicle model that participated in the event between the years stated.
Even if the particular model production continued beyond the 1980 cutoff!
So, hunt around for the make & model of the car that takes your fancy from the approved list, then prepare it to the level you wish within the rules, this is a huge, grey area as anything that improves safety is automatically allowed.
There are some odd ones!
As an example - no led's!
I am sure this is just to preserve the overall appearance of all the vehicles participating - but it could catch you out.
The entry forms and final entry instructions are very worth scanning for the fine print tripwires!
