Photo Gallery of Factory Five Cars in the Snow

With all of the snow this year in New England, we thought it would be a fun idea to take some pictures in this epic New England snow.  Dan, Jay, and Vinny did a nice job of pulling the car outs so they could be photographed.  It was fun to see a 500 HP Type 65 Coupe trying to idle through the hard packed snow and ice.
