Join us at NSRA Northeast in September!

Posted on August 29, 2018 by Dave Lindsey in What's New

It’s been a few years since we’ve attended the NSRA Northeast Nationals held in Burlington, VT. In 2015, a Factory Five ’33 Hot Rod won top honors at the event for “Best Ford in a Ford”! We’re heading back for this year’s Northeast Nationals, and will be bringing the latest Factory Fives including a sneak peek at the new full-fendered ’35 Hot Rod Truck which will be shown at this year’s SEMA Show!

We will have a few spaces available in our booth for Factory Five customers who want to attend the show and hang with the crew. Space is limited, so you’ll want to confirm this in advance with Tony Zullo (click here to e-mail Tony).
