ReinCarNation Magazine Details New Gen 3 Coupe

Posted on April 4, 2017 by Dave Lindsey in What's New

The crew at ReinCarNation did an excellent job covering the all-new Gen 3 Factory Five Type 65 Coupe and R-Type Coupe chassis. Ever since the magazine resurrected the venerable Car Builder Magazine (which was Kit Car Builder by Steve Temple), we have seen a steady stream of high-quality features from the crew at ReinCarNation.

Industry veteran Steve Temple is still contributing tremendously to the effort, and this past month in the April 2017 issue, are two great articles on Factory Five – this Coupe feature and an interesting chassis engineering article.

You can see more photos and read the entire article in ReinCarNation Magazine (available on some newsstands or by subscription). Click here to sign-up for a free subscription to ReinCarNation Magazine.
