Cette ann\u00e9e-l\u00e0, Ren\u00e9 De Swaef, le p\u00e8re de Lucien, Roger et Herman, a d\u00e9m\u00e9nag\u00e9 de Erpe pr\u00e8s d\u2019Alost \u00e0 la Dendermondsesteenweg \u00e0 Gand, \u00e0 quelques encablures du Dampoort. En 1940, lorsque la guerre \u00e9clata, Ren\u00e9 poss\u00e9dait d\u00e9j\u00e0 6 autocars de tourisme et 4 camions. L\u2019arm\u00e9e belge a malheureusement r\u00e9quisitionn\u00e9 sur-le-champ tous ces v\u00e9hicules. Mais \u00e0 quelque chose malheur est bon. En effet, gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 ses lettres de r\u00e9quisition, Ren\u00e9 a m\u00eame eu la priorit\u00e9 pour acheter le mat\u00e9riel roulant que les Am\u00e9ricains avaient laiss\u00e9 sur place juste apr\u00e8s la guerre\u00a0: un bus de la ville de Paris, un autre pour le transport du personnel avec des remorques d\u2019une ville allemande et trois tracteurs \u00e9quip\u00e9s de remorques de l\u2019arm\u00e9e am\u00e9ricaine. Il disposait ainsi presque imm\u00e9diatement d\u2019une flotte limit\u00e9e de v\u00e9hicules lui permettant de red\u00e9marrer son activit\u00e9. D\u00e9tail amusant\u00a0: les remorques des tracteurs provenaient du carrossier Verleure d\u2019Ypres. Ces v\u00e9hicules ont plus tard \u00e9t\u00e9 utilis\u00e9s pour le transport des ouvriers qui ont aid\u00e9 \u00e0 construire l\u2019exposition universelle de 1958 \u00e0 Bruxelles.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-41\" src=\"https:\/\/local.selectacars.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/historiek1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"870\" height=\"522\" srcset=\"https:\/\/selectacars.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/historiek1.jpg 870w, https:\/\/selectacars.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/historiek1-800x480.jpg 800w, https:\/\/selectacars.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/historiek1-768x461.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 870px) 100vw, 870px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-42\" src=\"https:\/\/local.selectacars.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/historiek2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"870\" height=\"604\" srcset=\"https:\/\/selectacars.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/historiek2.jpg 870w, https:\/\/selectacars.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/historiek2-800x555.jpg 800w, https:\/\/selectacars.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/historiek2-768x533.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 870px) 100vw, 870px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Dans les premi\u00e8res ann\u00e9es de l\u2019apr\u00e8s-guerre, les activit\u00e9s commerciales de l\u2019entreprise, qui avait entre-temps d\u00e9m\u00e9nag\u00e9 \u00e0 l\u2019Afrikalaan, se limitaient presque exclusivement au transport de personnes dans des autocars de tourisme, ce que la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 De Swaef faisait \u00e0 merveille.<\/p>\n<p>Au fil des ann\u00e9es 50, l\u2019entreprise a r\u00e9ussi \u00e0 \u00e9voluer vers une v\u00e9ritable soci\u00e9t\u00e9 d\u2019autocars.
