Jordan’s Mk3 Factory Five Roadster

Congratulations to Factory Five customer Jordan (Factory Five Forum handle: @Blessidsoul12) on winning January Picture of the Month. Jordan also won ‘Judge’s Choice’ in his first cruise and show at Wheelin’ Walla Walla, Washington.

He said about the weekend show that, “The cobra ran flawlessly. Cooling fan kicked on and kept water temps 210 or less. Show & Shine was Saturday and I won a ‘Judges Choice’ trophy. It was totally unexpected, but an awesome surprise. I had so much fun doing the whole thing! The show Wheelin’ Walla Walla in Washington is a beautiful town, and they love their classic cars. It is now rated as America’s Top wine region.” 

Jordan’s Factory Five Roadster is a MkIII painted Gulfstream Aqua, with a 302 T5 with short throw shifter, Holley sniper EFI Walbro 255 pump, and Koni coilover suspension.

“There were 3 other cobras there (one was ERA), a GTM and a type 65 owned by another forum member. It is an awesome show and the people here love seeing the cobras and Daytonas.”
