The Andes adventure started in Antofagasta, on the coast of Northern Chile with 15 cars and teams from Belgium, Finland, the U.S., Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland and France. In all there were three Mustangs, two Mercedes Pagoda, a Mercedes 280 SL, a 1937 Lagonda, a 1957 Bentley, two Porsches, two Peugeot 504 convertibles, an Austin-Healey and a Sunbeam Tiger.
This harsh but beautiful coastline borders the driest desert in the world, the famous Atacama desert. After a briefing at the hotel facing the Pacific Ocean, the teams prepared themselves for the next adventure through the Andes mountain range.
