This past Saturday was a lot of fun for me.  I got to deliver a brand-new GTM kit to Factory Five customer Jeff L. from New Jersey, and then a half hour later, we hosted the Viper Club of New England here at the factory for a tour.

After a quick tour of the plant, I met Jeff’s dad Bill who drove down from Maine to meet Jeff for the pick-up.  We loaded up and another Factory Five GTM is born.  Special thanks to Jeff and Bill Loeffler for the business and for their enthusiasm.
