Factory Five Crew Loads Up 2013 SEMA Cars

The Factory Five show and event truck was loaded and headed west for Las Vegas last night.  This year, we have 14 Factory Fives in the 2013 SEMA Show.  We are lucky to have a tremendous amount of support from the Factory Five community.  Factory Five customers will be helping in the booth, displaying their cars, and adding a ton of depth to our show effort.  Here are a few photos of some of the cars we are taking.
