Facel Metallon was a highly regarded industrial firm that constructed bodies for many of France's finest cars. Founder Jean Daninos was anxious to become a full-line manufacturer of luxury vehicles and showed some of his own designs as early as 1950. When Panhard withdrew a model at the last minute from the 1954 Paris Salon, Daninos stepped in to show the first Facel Vega. It was powered by a Chrysler 'Hemi' V8.
These cars were large, luxurious, and totally handbuilt. The big Chrysler engines provided silky smooth acceleration. As a result, they were very popular with the Hollywood set as well as wealthy industrialists around the world. Facel would produce these cars from 1954 through 1964.
