Factory Five Customer Mike from AZ Reaches 62,000

[Mad Dog]

We received an e-mail from long time customer Mike C. from Arizona who reports he has recently hit 62,000 miles on his Factory Five Roadster. Having received FFR 2290K in September 2000 and completing his build in January of 2001, Mike has been busy driving along the famous Route 66 and at events like SAAC Does Vegas event.

“The car has since participated in many long drives to California and Nevada,” said Mike. “This is not a trailer Queen as evidenced by many, many rock chips in the paint. I call them my badges of honor.”
