Whitby Motorcars & Mid-Atlantic Customers Donate $1,000 to Cystic Fibrosis Charity

Posted on July 2, 2012 by Dave Lindsey in What's New

Barry was here from Whitby Motorscars this morning to pick-up a Hot Rod kit for one of their customers. While he was here, he dropped off $981 worth of donations to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation on behalf of Whitby Motorcars, Rick Williams, and Dr. Robert Adams and his wife Janice. Barry loaded up their ’33 Hot Rod and a spare frame (new Mk4 Roadster) for their body shop.

Jeff, Barry, and the boys at Whitby have been building Factory Fives for 15 years. They’ve built all types of Factory Five kits and they have helped build a massive Mid-Atlantic region FFR community.

On behalf of everyone at Factory Five Racing and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, I want to send out a huge thanks to Whitby Motorcars and the Mid-Atlantic FFR customers.

Bill B. Shares an Update on His Mk5 Build

April 20, 2026

Every build has a story—but some take a lifetime to begin. After decades as a technician, engineer, and business owner—building companies, leading teams, and designing critical communications systems across New England—I decided at 50 to return to where it all started: a passion for cars. That decision became Blue Hills Customs. This MK5 Roadster is more than a project—it’s the first expression of a vision to create ultra-premium, one-off roadsters that blend classic design with modern performance and reliability. Factory Five Racing provided the perfect canvas. The MK5 isn’t just a kit—it’s a foundation that allows builders to bring something truly… Read More »
