Facel Vega HK500 - A Prestigious Restoration and a Unique Opportunity

 

Discover this magnificent Facel Vega HK500, produced in just 490 examples worldwide, a true gem of French motoring produced between 1958 and 1961. Often depicted as a car for celebrities, it was notably owned by Ringo Starr.

 

Built on 07-1958 and first put on the road on 02-08-1958, the car was converted in England to take part in a number of championships and vintage races. Notable drivers include Martin Kent and Peter Taylor, notably in the "Santa Prod" races from 1966. The car therefore has a great racing record, and all this history is documented by photos, a written history, as well as personal research carried out by former owners of this iconic model.

 

Under its hood, a powerful Chrysler V8 engine develops 360 hp, propelling this grand tourer to impressive speeds of up to 237 km/h. Combining high-end performance with timeless elegance, the HK500 is recognizable by its clean lines and aggressive stance, complemented by luxurious finishes and a comfortable interior.

 

The car offered for sale is an exceptional restoration project, delivered with a complete and researched history and a set of accessories necessary for a faithful reassembly to the original, including the interior and various mechanical and finishing parts.

 

For those looking to invest, it's worth noting that a similar model sold for around €320,000 a few years ago, and the value of these vehicles continues to rise, testifying to their growing appeal on the collectors' market.

 

Classic car and restoration enthusiasts will be delighted by this virtually unique project, a chance to own not only a collector's vehicle, but also a piece of history ready to hit the road again in style.
