FASTO / FRANCE

FASTO / St. ELOY / FRANCE  ( 1926 - 1928 )

The FASTO was a short lived company. They started car production in St.Eloy / France in 1926.
It was an undistinguished car using a 4- and a 6- cylinder engine in a conventional chassis. Nothing special on it.       No production numbers known and the emblem is a hard to find item.

Size	ca. 5 cm
Year	1926 - 1929

Until recently, it was not known that a FASTO vehicle had survived. But there was adrawing of this emblem, which was made by Gustaf Moeller back in the 1920s. Gustaf lived near the ferry port in Helsingborg / Sweden and drew the emblems of the waiting cars there. What a great hobby that still helps and delights us a hundred years later:

I know that there was a second enameled emblem in the last year of existence from FASTO. But I have no photo. Also I´m always looking to buy this particular emblem. May be you can help ?
