Equipment

4 speed. First owner bought it back from the second, extensively restored in the UK in 1991 but owner died and the car stored and unused since. Needs attention.

Market commentary

This is a heck of a price for a Facel Vega HK500, particularly if it has a 300 cubic inch V8 as described in the catalog. Should be at least a 354 (5.8 liter) if not a 383. Pushing around the not inconsiderable bulk of a Facel Vega, cubic inches count and that translates to value. Anything over $25,000 for this long dormant Facel is emotional spending.
