Bill B. Shares an Update on His Mk5 Build
Every build has a story—but some take a lifetime to begin.
After decades as a technician, engineer, and business owner—building companies, leading teams, and designing critical communications systems across New England—I decided at 50 to return to where it all started: a passion for cars.
That decision became Blue Hills Customs.
This MK5 Roadster is more than a project—it’s the first expression of a vision to create ultra-premium, one-off roadsters that blend classic design with modern performance and reliability.
Factory Five Racing provided the perfect canvas. The MK5 isn’t just a kit—it’s a foundation that allows builders to bring something truly personal to life.
For me, this build represents a full-circle moment—combining a lifetime of technical experience with the dream I set aside years ago.
This is just the beginning.
