The magazine ad that started it all.

Yes, you read that right. Today is your chance to order a new Factory Five Mk4 Roadster kit for the original price of $9,900. Did we mention that the offer is for today only, and only five will be offered at that price, first come, first served? The orders must be placed with a Factory Five technical support team member at 508-291-3443, and you must accept the next available completion date.

Per David Smith, President of Factory Five Racing, “20 years ago in 1995, I placed this advertisement which would launch a new company called Factory Five Racing and a new idea, namely that of using Mustang donor running gear to build a modern C-car replica. In order to kick off our 20 days of celebrations for 20 years in business, we are offering five (5) base Mk4 Roadster kits at the original 1995 price of $9,900!  This is a strictly first come, first served offer, and is limited to five total kits.”

To celebrate 20 awesome, successful years of Factory Five Racing, the company will be offering one special a day for the next 20 days. What better way to give back to the automotive community that has supported your endeavor since day one? We received our Factory Five Mk4 Challenge kit a couple of months ago, and we’re having a blast piecing it together, and now today is your chance to order one at the original price. We’ll be covering all of their specials over the next 20 days, so be sure to check back here for updates.

Factory Five Racing has definitely come a long way since the company’s inception, and the photos really show it. Congrats to the company, and cheers to many more years of engineering great kit cars!
