Factory Five Racing
Pepper Gray Metallic


Setting sun shot above is hotlinked (alternate view, much larger size).

A stunning example of a Factory Five MKIII roadster. Completed in 2007 and putting out over 327 hp and 327 ft./lbs. of torque to the rear wheels. The use of a lightweight 302 small block keeps this car light and balanced and delivers awesome acceleration and handling.

Here are more of my personal photos of this breathtaking driving machine:

CHASSIS & SUSPENSION

Factory Five roadsters are renowned for their excellent engineering, which provides you with a stiff chassis and a lightweight and nimble car, the low mass due in part to the strategic employment of lightweight aluminum instead of fiberglass for the engine, cockpit and trunk areas.
