Factory Five Racing John Millette was impressed with FFR President Dave Smith’s Mk4 Roadster, so he set about to build a similar one for street use. John sought out pro-builder Ron Everitt and the two built this stunning red Mk4 rocket.

The car is powered by Ford’s new 5.0L Coyote matted to a TKO 5-speed transmission with a 3-link performance rear suspension and KONI coil-overs all around. The car runs stock Factory Five 17″ Halibrand style wheels and optional Wilwood brakes.

The interior sports FFR gauges with a very cool custom painted dash that carries the stripe pattern from the hood. John used our polished stainless steel side pipes and chrome roll bar to compliment the red metallic paint and grey metallic stripes. John says he plans on using the car for spirited street driving. The car was originally built with dual roll bars.

Congratulations John on a beautiful car and congratulations to Ron Everitt for a FANTASTIC build. We look forward to seeing your car at our Open House and perhaps at SEMA 2012!

Does anyone know what hood scoop is on this car? If you follow the link and look at the picture of the scoop, it looks to be more rounded than the typical scoop on a MK4

I asked Ron that same question!

It's a BACKDRAFT SCOOP. (http://www.backdraftparts.com/shopexd.asp?id=144)
