However I would expect the girl to be wearing a long wollen coat, scarf and holding a turnip.

(http://www.facel-vega.com/fvpix/hifrog603.jpg)(http://www.channel4.com/4car/media/features/2005/crap-cars/03-large/facel-vega-excellence.jpg) Termi - well I'm impressed, it is a Facel Vega Excellence. They only made them for 4 years (58-62) and not sure how many they made but was not big, about 156. Note - no "B post" how many other cars were made with out a B post ? (and I do not know the answer) Was told by a owner once, if you jacked up the car or parked the car on a kerb, the car would twist so much that you could not close the door easily, if not at all. Have to try and find a hard one next time. |
