The conversion from coup\u00e9 to convertible was the most important step of course, but because had to become a useable car too, many upgrades were done. For instance, Facels were originally equipped with a manual (Pont \u00e1 Mousson) or automatic (Chrysler) gearbox. The original car had a manual gearbox, but the automatics didn\u2019t have a Park position. A newer Chrysler automatic gearbox was fitted, but JB designed a gear lever and mechanism inspired by the early Facel models.<\/p>\n<h3>BE SAFE<\/h3>\n<p>A one of a kind car can be enjoyed more when it is easy and safe to use. In today\u2019s traffic better brakes are not just a luxury, it\u2019s necessary. JB Classic Cars created a brake system that suits this FV2B Convertible well. 4 piston calipers were placed on front for an extra bite. The original wheel hubs were redesigned to fit vented disc. Based on experience, the Facel Vegas without power steering offer the best steering feel to any driver, but it\u2019s hard work. The original power steering didn\u2019t fit the JB standards. The team mounted an EZ (\u2018easy\u2019) electronic power steering on the original non-powered steering column. Best of both worlds.<\/p>\n<h3>CONTINUE READING:<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h5 id=\"fancy-title-12\" class=\"mk-fancy-title  simple-style   color-single\"><a href=\"http:\/\/facelvegaconvertible.com\/the-result\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">RESULT<\/a> <img src=\"http:\/\/facelvegaconvertible.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/arrow.png\" alt=\"null\" \/><\/h5>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][mk_padding_divider size=&#8221;150&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][mk_page_section bg_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; padding_top=&#8221;140&#8243; padding_bottom=&#8221;140&#8243; sidebar=&#8221;sidebar-1&#8243;][vc_column width=&#8221;5\/12&#8243;][mk_fancy_title tag_name=&#8221;h5&#8243; color=&#8221;#454545&#8243; size=&#8221;16&#8243; line_height=&#8221;200&#8243; font_weight=&#8221;600&#8243; txt_transform=&#8221;uppercase&#8221; letter_spacing=&#8221;2&#8243; margin_bottom=&#8221;10&#8243; font_family=&#8221;none&#8221;]\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/jb.classiccars\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a> <img src=\"http:\/\/facelvegaconvertible.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/arrow.png\" alt=\"null\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Jasper-Beukenkamp-Classic-Cars-199439936863947\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">facebook<\/a> <img src=\"http:\/\/facelvegaconvertible.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/arrow.png\" alt=\"null\" \/><\/p>\n[\/mk_fancy_title][mk_padding_divider size=&#8221;100&#8243; visibility=&#8221;visible-sm&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;7\/12&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/mk_page_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row disable_element=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column][mk_padding_divider size=&#8221;75&#8243; visibility=&#8221;hidden-sm&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1529137353103{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][mk_padding_divider size=&#8221;100&#8243; visibility=&#8221;hidden-sm&#8221;][mk_padding_divider size=&#8221;50&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1529135461268{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;] BESPOKE During the process the team at Jasper Beukenkamp Classic Cars had to make several bespoke parts.
