Description
• The 21st Facel II produced •
Delivered new in Paris • Four-speed manual transmission • Well documented (seven owners from new) • Serviced in March 2020 • Working condition • Offered for restoration In its relatively short life, the French firm of Facel produced approximately 2,900 cars, all of which were stylish, luxurious and fast.
Hand built, they were, of course, necessarily very expensive (the Facel II was priced in Rolls-Royce territory) and were bought by the rich and famous seeking something exclusive and distinctive.
The roll call of owners includes royalty, politicians, diplomats and entertainers: Tony Curtis, Danny Kaye, Ringo Starr, Joan Fontaine, Ava Gardner and Tony Franciosa being counted among the latter.
Confirming that there was high-performance substance behind Facel's unquestionable style, they were owned and driven by great motor racing figures such as Sir Stirling Moss, Maurice Trintignant and Rob Walker.
