FFR's Dave Lindsey, a.k.a Mad Dog, and his dad, Craig Lindsey with the Mk3 Roadster they built together.

It has been said that the Factory Five community exists on a lot of different levels. We got to know our webmaster Dave Lindsey, a.k.a Mad Dog, after getting to know his dad Craig who had bought and built his Mk3 Roadster.

Mr. Lindsey stopped by the other day with his car and he and Dave went to lunch. His Patriot Blue Roadster has over about 20,000 miles on the clock and the unusually mild New England fall helped clock a few more recently. Nice job Mr. Lindsey on your car!

This is the build where I experienced the joys of pop riveting!
