After we wrap things up at the 2016 SEMA Show, the Factory Five big rig heads east to Florida to attend the Emerald Coast Cruizin’! SO if you can’t attend SEMA, this is a great way to see the SEMA cars up close.

Jo Coddington will be at the Factory Five booth from 1pm to 2 pm on Friday and Saturday of the show.

We will be bringing some big surprises from SEMA along with our fleet of Factory Five show cars.  This year, the organizers of the Emerald Coast Cruise have given us 20 spaces for a dedicated Factory Five corral immediately in front of the Factory Five booth and on the main pavilion grounds.  It is first come, first served, and you still need to register for the show, but you can sign up for the Factory Five corral below.
