Carlisle Import and Replica Nationals – May 16-18:
We’ve been attending the Carlisle Import & Replica Nationals since 1995.  This show is one of the original kit car and replica shows that highlights most of the replica or kit car manufacturers.  This year, Factory Five customers take the spotlight as our massive display booth will be taken over by cars built by customers (and better looking than our own factory cars!).  Join the Factory Five crew and customers at the 2014 Carlisle show. Click here for more information.

Factory Five Open House – June 14:
This year is our 17th Annual Factory Five Open House and we are keeping the same great format.  It is a one day show that includes car show awards, plant tours, live music, our famous Scratch And Dent Sale, free food (hot dogs sort of qualify), and this year, we will be unveiling our all-new 289 FIA replica!

The entire Factory Five crew will be on hand to answer any of your questions and to show off all of your questions.  Join us for this fun Saturday-only rain or shine, open to the public event.

London C-car Show – June 21-22:
The largest gathering of C-car replicas on the planet each year is the London C-car Show.  Registration fees and promotional sales benefit the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (a great cause) and the show has something to do for everyone over three full days with the biggest day being the Saturday Main Street gathering and cruise.  The crew from Factory Five will be there with our big rig and Roadsters and we hope to see you there!  Click here for full details on this year’s London C-car show.

He Sold His Dream Car to Take Care of His Family. Now, He’s Building a Mk5 with Them!

Some stories come full circle, and Jason K.’s is a great example. Jason bought his first Factory Five Mk1 Roadster, kit #1413, in May 1998 at just 24 years old. He spent a year building it and loved it so much that he even included it in his will for his two sons. He never planned to sell it, but life had other plans. Over the five years he owned it, Jason made plenty of memories, including attending Run & Gun at St. Louis International Speedway in 1998 or 1999.
