For
some years Facel Vega founder and owner Jean Daninos had the idea to
fill the 'gap' between the Chrysler powered V8 models and the compact
Facel III had the Volvo four cylinder engine. He decided to develop a
six cylinder model. In the year 1964 the Facel 6 was presented. The
Facel 6 was based on the Facel III. The Facel 6 featured a stronger
chassis and a longer bonnet to house the six cylinder in line engine.
This robust engine was a slightly modified Austin Healey unit producing
150 SAE bhp. and giving the Facel 6 a top speed of 195 km/h. The four
speed manual gearbox and the live rear axle were carried over from the
powerful V8 models. The level of luxury was also a step up from the
Facel III model. BMC type six
