Kevin Byrd and Willie B from “Two Guys Garage” are coming to the Factory Five Build School this September 27, 28, and 29 and we are inviting students to participate in this special class!  So, if you’ve been thinking about attending the Factory Five Build School, this might be a fun opportunity to learn how to build your own Factory Five Mk4 Roadster and get a chance to be on “Two Guys Garage” (students of the September 27-29 class WILL be on “Two Guys Garage”).

Students will be selected first come, first served and must sign an appearance release.  Also, please note that while the build school instructions and course will be taught at this special class, the filming requirements MAY result in a class instruction that is at a slower pace than a normal class.

Class size is limited to 15 students and Kevin and Willie will be enrolled as students leaving 13 spaces available.  Good luck and we hope to see you on this special “Two Guys Garage” Factory Five Build School episode!
