Barrett-Jackson Northeast! June 26-29

Posted on May 22, 2019 by Dave Lindsey in What's New

Barrett-Jackson Northeast – June 26th – 29th, Mohegan Sun, CT

Join the Factory Five crew and literally thousands of fans at the third annual Barrett-Jackson Northeast car show and auction! Factory Five live-builds have become a tradition at Barrett-Jackson events in Scottsdale and Connecticut, so we are continuing this tradition and building a VERY special Factory Five Mk4 Roadster. Barrett-Jackson Northeast will be held at Connecticut’s Mohegan Sun casino, and we will be at the show with our latest cars and crew.

The live-build tradition continues this year at Barrett-Jackson Northeast!

The party starts on Wednesday, June 26th and wraps up on Saturday night, June 29th.

Last year was a ton of fun as we brought our full line-up of cars and big rig while staffing the live-build area. Last year, Barrett-Jackson increased this show from three days to four days, and crowds were heavy every single day, so IF you’re planning on attending, make sure to get your tickets in advance since they can sell out.

The Factory Five big rig will be there as our display backdrop, along with our fleet of demo cars.

At last year’s Barrett-Jackson Northeast car show, we debuted the full-fendered ’35 Hot Rod Truck.

We built a ’33 Hot Rod at last year’s auction, and this year, we’ve got a special build project we’ll be doing in Restoration Alley, a.k.a. the D.I.Y. Area.

The Factory Five booth is directly along the entrance for every single auction car.

Hope to see you at Mohegan Sun! Click here for more details on Barrett-Jackson’s website.

January 26, 2026

I made the call to scrub FFR operations for the day. The drive in wasn’t bad, and most roads are clear. Unfortunately our plow crew was late, and the day dawned with 3-4′ drifts in the back parking lot! We will be at work and at full strength tomorrow. Sorry for any difficulties this may cause.

Three Generations Embark on a Type 65 Coupe Dream Build

January 19, 2026

Dave Ryan’s Type 65 Coupe build is moving right along—and it’s become something even bigger along the way. In collaboration with Factory Five Racing, V6 Media is producing a short film documenting the build process. Recently, Dave’s father, Vaun Ryan, sat down to share his lifelong passion for performance cars and motorcycles—sparked as a young boy on the family farm in Utah, building a homemade go-kart powered by a hay-elevator motor. That curiosity for how things work turned into a lifetime of mechanical enthusiasm, passed down through generations and now culminating in Dave’s Type 65 Coupe build, which is a…
