During season two of “Car Warriors” on Speed Channel, two teams of Factory Five customers built side-by-side ’33 Hot Rods. What made the Factory Five episode special was that the teams donated the winning car to benefit the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation in honor of Jenny Smith who is the daughter of Factory Five owner Dave Smith.

Following the show, the car was shipped from southern California to Wareham, MA where it was to be auctioned for the CF charity. In an exciting development, a private donor has pledged to match any money raised by the sale of this car with ALL funds going 100% to the CF Foundation.

There is a catch. In order for the charity to receive matching funds, the car must be sold by the end of the year! What this means is that we have five days to sell the winning East Coast “Car Warriors” ’33 Hot Rod if we want matching funds.

Lucky for us, we’ve hired Tony Zullo who was one of the leaders of the East Coast team and who built (and painted) the car. Tony can answer any specific questions about the car, but here are the specifications and parts list that went into building the car:

The car was assembled by a great team of customers who had previously built their own Factory Fives. The car is build to a high degree of fit and finish and the parts total close to $36,000 without paint. The car comes with full digital high-res studio photos, a copy of the episode, two sets of keys, certificate of origin, and receipt. We are selling the car as an unregistered vehicle (comes with Certificate of Origin and receipt for parts) and will require registration in the home state of the new owner.

The car is sold as is and without warranty. If the car sells before the end of the year, a private foundation will donate matching funds to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Our goal is to raise $60,000 for CF research and so the car is being offered for sale for an unbelievable $29,999! It must be paid for in full by January 31st at midnight. If you have any questions, you can call Tony Zullo at Factory Five Racing at 508-291-3443 or e-mail him at tony.zullo@factoryfive.com.

This is the only car that is available and will be sold to the first person who pays $29,999. It will not be offered at this price after January 1st, 2013. This is an UNBELIEVABLE deal for the person who is looking for a GREAT custom Factory Five ’33 Hot Rod ALREADY BUILT!

I hope this sells! This could be a nice boost to the year end for the CF Foundation! Help all of us "CF'ers" out and purchase an outstanding car!
