Join Us at Edlebrock on May 6th!

Join us on Saturday, May 6th at the 12th annual Edlebrock Car Show at Vic’s Garage in Torrance, CA. The Factory Five big rig and show cars are in town the previous week for the 10th annual Huntington Beach Cruise-In, so we decided to stay in town for a few more days and crash the Edlebrock show! Customer cars are welcome to this great one-day event.

We are bringing a very special Edlebrock project car to the HB show and to be delivered to the Edlebrock crew at their car show.
