Join Us at Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale 2018!


The brand-new Factory Five ’35 Hot Rod Pick-Up Truck will be on display at this year’s show.

The Factory Five crew is set-up and ready for action in Scottsdale, AZ at the 2018 Barrett-Jackson Show! If you’re in the area, feel free to stop by and check out our latest fleet of Factory Fives and customer-built cars. Last year, we built a ’33 Hot Rod live at the show, and this year, we  will be building a Factory Five Mk4 Roadster owned by customer Ron Everitt. When the car is completed, it will be going up for sale at the auction on the big day, Saturday, January 20th!

Chris R. and the great guys at FormaCars are set-up right next to us on the main midway where all auction cars pass.


The Factory Five Gen 3 Coupe-R fresh from the season finale of “Fast N’ Loud” will be on display in the Factory Five tent. Factory Five customer Karen Salvaggio also brought her Gen 3 Coupe that was displayed at the 2017 SEMA Show.


This year’s show gives us a chance to try our our brand-new big rig awning.

Now that we’re out west, we will be heading to the Grand National Roadster Show in Pomona, CA the weekend after Barrett-Jackson. Right now, however, we are ready to go for the next TEN DAYS of car show fun at Barrett-Jackson, Scottsdale, AZ.
