Factory Five Master Builder Henry R. Picks-Up His 818S

We’ve known Henry Renaud for more than 10 years, and in that time, he has built 7 Factory Fives (2 GTM, 3 Roadsters, 1 Hot Rod, 1 Challenge Car)!  Henry is an officer in the United States Air Force and has served two tours of duty in the Middle East.  While he is not in a war zone, he has a passion for building Factory Fives.

Henry wasn’t the only Factory Five customer visiting this morning.  Factory Five customer Gary Cheney stopped by to check out the 818S.  Cheney is putting the finishing touches on a brand-new GTM being built for SEMA 2013.
