History
The Facel Vega FV3 appeared in October 1956, succeeding the first FV coupés and reinforcing Facel's stature as a prestigious French manufacturer. True to the brand's philosophy, it combined elegant French bodywork with a powerful Chrysler V8 engine. In terms of styling, the FV3 series is notable for having introduced the superimposed double-headlamp configuration that was to become the visual signature of Facel cars. Extremely exclusive, only 46 examples of the FV3 were produced before being replaced by the FV3 B in 1957.
🇫🇷Notre is a narrow-bodied model of which only 26 were produced. The car was delivered new on 20 December 1956 to Saint-Saulve in the north of France for a wealthy industrialist. It subsequently passed through 7 successive hands before being purchased by the current owner in 2016.
