1954 FORD COMETE Monte-Carlo Serial number 2144 Motor number 3001852 Elegant Facel bodywork Less than 40 known copies Same owner since 1990 French title This Ford Comète Monte-Carlo has the following numbers: serial number 2144; chassis number 2144; motor number 3001852; Facel Métalon body number 1571. Its engine was assembled on April 9th, 1954 and was mounted on the chassis on April 15th, 1954, it was painted black and the cabin dressed in tan. The car was then delivered to the Weisman dealer in Paris, for the attention of Mr. Bonnes, resident at 14 rue de Rome. Its current owner acquired it in 1990 and has begun a major restoration. It was then painted in a turquoise green and dark green original and the interior was trimmed in green. It is in good condition and has many new parts. On the mechanical side, the floor-standing gearbox was revised and the clutch replaced. The brakes have been revised, as are the steering joints, the ignition and the exhaust manifold. This Comet features a vintage car radio, an aluminum dashboard, an exterior mirror and a chrome grille. It is a very interesting automobile, both for its aesthetics and for its rarity. A real luxury car at the crossroads of France and America, a FacelVega before the era.
