Description of 1960 Other Makes 2 door coupe |
Hello and welcome to the auction for my fully restored Facel Vega HK 500, I know with it being a RHD America may not be the best place to sell the car but I know that there is a large Facel Vega following in the States as most of them were exported to America back in the day, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Tony Curtis were just a few of the celebrity's that owned one of these beautiful cars. It has taken me four years to complete this wonderful motor car. This has been a real labour of love and I have to say I am rather proud of the finished article, however I'm afraid due to a new business venture it must be sold, my loss will definitely be someone else’s gain as these rare motor cars are a rapidly appreciating Classic. As you can see from the pictures everything has been taken off the car and been cleaned, powder coated or painted, this includes the engine and gearbox, back axle, prop shaft and all brake calipers. All the chrome fittings have been re chromed and all the stainless steel bright work has been polished to a mirror finish. It sits on brand new chrome wire wheels with re chromed Facel Vega spinners with new matching tyres all round. This is one of only 105 genuine RHD cars from the factory, with power assisted steering and automatic transmission, and electric windows. I could go on and on about the car, however if you are seriously interested and you would like any further information or any specific pictures of the car please get in touch or better still come and view the car, trust me you won’t be disappointed. Thank you for reading my listing and good luck if you're going to have a bid. Please be aware the car is advertised elsewhere. |
