Vincent P. from Lakeland, FL (originally from New York) has dreamed of this moment for years. This morning, he walked in with a Factory Five Roadster ad he’d kept in his garage since 2004! Inspired by a neighbor’s original 427, Vincent always knew he’d build his own.
Now building his own, he plans to install a 429 engine and go for a period-correct look. With years of experience building cars like Mustangs and a De Tomaso Pantera, he’s ready to dive in.
Vincent’s friend Steve, a Porsche enthusiast and long-time build partner, joined him—and after fitting in the Mk5, he might just be a convert!
Congrats, Vincent, on making your dream a reality.
