CLASSICAR GARAGE NEWSLETTER 122, 27 OCTOBER 2016

 
Dear classic car enthusiast,
 
The tree-leaves are colouring into beautiful shades of red, orange, yellow and brown in our region. That implicates that we in northern Europe should prepare our cars for the winter in about two weeks… Two weeks to still enjoy delightful classic rides on the open road! Over the last weeks yours truly has tested and photographed over 30 newly arrived classic and sports cars for sale. In today’s newsletter, I present 22 quality cars for you to inspect closely.
 
Your attention was first caught by the fabulous and rare 1958 BMW 503 coupe pictured above, only 273 cars of this type have been built. British cars are leading the pack today with splendid models built by Austin Healey, Aston Martin, Jaguar, MG and Triumph. The German ‘gründlichkeit’ is represented by the likes of BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Porsche. Italy must settle for only two entries of which one is a very desirable Fiat 600 Multipla!
The French pride is held high by the ‘Grand Marque’ of Facel Vega. You will find two restoration projects which are currently at hand at Amicale Facel Holland and a notice about the impressive Facel Vega theme exhibition which can be seen at InterClassics 2017! 
     
Enjoy the ride!
 
Sincerely yours,
Marc Vorgers.

RESTORATION PROJECTS AT AMICALE FACEL HOLLAND
 
At Amicale Facel Holland (AFH) many Facel Vega restoration projects are being carried out by the skilled craftsmen. We have updated the Facel Vega FV4 project and we have added a new project of a Facel Vega FV3B. Both cars are in the sheet metal phase of their 'body off' restorations. In the photos you can see how badly rusted 60 year old automobiles can be. No problem at AFH, the cars will be as good as new, even better, after the work is finished.
