A Busy Day of Filming at Factory Five

We have fantastic partner companies that we work with here at Factory Five, and one of them visited us last week.  iContact is the company that helps us send out our monthly mass e-mails, and our Account Manager (and future Factory Five 818 owner) Brandon Allen asked if we would help film a testimonial video on how Factory Five uses iContact to stay in touch with our customers.

The film crew interviewed Factory Five President Dave Smith and web guy Dave Lindsey on how Factory Five shares Factory Five stories and events with their community of customers through e-mail.   iContact has helped to simplify the process over our 3+ year partnership.  Brandon (BrandonDrums on the Factory Five Forum) was also interviewed, and talked about how excited he was to help Factory Five with their e-mail campaign as he was already a big fan of FFR prior to working at iContact.

It was a fun shoot, and we would like to thank iContact for all of their help and including us in their new testimonial videos.

Dave E. Graduates his ’33 Hot Rod Build!

Congratulations to Dave E. on graduating his ’33 Hot Rod build! After being a fan of Factory Five for a number of years, and dreaming of a Roadster project, Dave shifted gears once he laid eyes on a FFR ’33 Hot Rod at the build school at Mott Community College. Dave and his wife would soon order a Hot Rod kit, and take the opportunity to learn new skills throughout the build.

Charlie D. Graduates his Type 65 Coupe!

Customer Charlie D. started his Coupe build in Spring 2018, and by the end of the year, he had his first start and was soon go-carting around the neighborhood. Over the next year, he worked on fitting the body. He had to hit pause on the build for several years due to focus on some other projects.
