Description
This 1956 Facel Vega FV2B is one of approximately 74 built between April and October 1956 and is said to have been sold new in California, remaining with its previous owner from 1984 until it was acquired by the selling dealer in July 2021.
The car is finished in red over black upholstery, and power comes from a 330ci DeSoto Hemi V8 paired with a push-button two-speed Power
Flite automatic transmission.
Features include a wraparound windshield, 15″ Zenith chrome wire wheels with three-ear knockoff hubs, a retractable antenna, power windows, an HMV push-button radio, and a painted woodgrain steel dash panel.

This FV2B is now offered with an owner’s manual, tools, registration records from 1984 to the present, and a clean California title.
