A-Z of Car Stuff
This is one in a series of posts on cars, drivers, designers etc. that have interested me over the years. I’ve bored my family and friends with this stuff for years – now it’s your turn!
See A-Z of Car Stuff page for more posts in this series.
So – whats so special about Facel?
Facel or Forges et Ateliers de Constructions d’Eure-et-Loir (Facel S.A. for short) traces its roots back to 1939 when it was established by parent company Bronzavia – a manufacturer of military aircraft.
The company eventually shifted from manufacturing steel components and furniture to building special edition cars for large manufacturers and finally to building their own Facel-badged luxury GT and sports cars.
