Posted on September 6, 2024 by Nicole Smith in What's New

“Built my dream car for my birthday.” — Pietro

Pietro dreamed of owning a car like this, so he built it into existence and celebrated his birthday with his Factory Five Mk2 Roadster! Pietro’s build features titanium gray stripes, a 427 Windsor Stroker engine, and Factory Five carbon fiber dashboard. His car is built for looks, speed, and precision with a new Holley Sniper II fuel injection system, cross-drilled and slotted Baer brakes, and M&H Racemaster drag race tires.

Inside of the car, custom barrel back seats, a 15” matte black Forever Sharp steering wheel, and 7 AutoMeter carbon fiber gauges offer style, comfort and information at your fingertips. Pietro’s Factory Five Mk2 Roadster is truly one-of-a-kind. Happy birthday Pietro, and congratulations on your beautiful build!
