Trip to Factory Five Racing in Wareham, MA

We were signed up for a 3 day build class for the 33 in Howell, MI so we decided since we were heading somewhat up that direction that we would make a stop over in Wareham, MA the home of Factory Five. They are about 1 hour S/E of Boston. So we flew into Boston, rented a car and drove down to their factory.

For cars guys it was a fairly interesting tour. They have a toltal of 6 kits they offer. The Cobra, which we've already built one. https://www.factoryfive.com/kits/mk4-roadster/

The 33 Hot Rod which we're going to build one. https://www.factoryfive.com/kits/33-hot-rod/

Type 65 Coupe, this type of car is what Carroll Shelby raced at Lemans and won. https://www.factoryfive.com/kits/type-65-coupe/

GTM Super Car which looks like an exotic car like a Lamborgini or the likes, this is a mid engine car. https://www.factoryfive.com/kits/gtm-supercar/

The Challenger Car which is basically a Cobra set up for racing. https://www.factoryfive.com/kits/challenge-car/

Their newest car the 818 S&R (street and race, which is actually two different cars. These are also mid engine cars. https://www.factoryfive.com/kits/project-818/

We were able to look at the cars they have on display in their showroom and then take a tour of their factory. I found it very interesting.

We drove back to Boston and stay overnight to catch our flight out to MI the next morning.
