Awesome car, but I need to sell it before I move this summer. It took me about 2 years to build and it has over $35,000 dollars invested during the build. The car is currently registered as a Year: 1965, Make: Factory Five, Model: Roadster. There was no emissions required when registering in CT. It is currently titled, registered, and insured in CT. During Inspection it was given a new CT VIN #. The FFR Frame number is F5R1007941RD.  I painted and themed it after the P-51 Airplane. The passenger roll bar can be unbolted and the decals are stuck on for those who may wish to change the theme ( I had many questions on this). This car turns heads and gets compliments everywhere though. It’s an excellent running rebuilt/modified 302 fuel injected engine from a 1994 Mustang. It has a comp cam that operates and sounds beautiful (especially at idle). The heads are ported and polished. It has bigger fuel injectors, a Cobra intake, BBK mass air, under drive pulleys, factory five gauges, and etc…  It was professionally tuned and dynoed in with 312 hp “This was at the rear wheels” and yes the car flies due to how light it is. It gets over 20mpg when cruising down the highway with the 5-speed transmission and isn’t horrible on the ears either. It has a new clutch and new 3:55 gears installed in the rear which is why it matches everyday driving wonderful. It has new brakes all the way around and a new Wilwood master cylinder. It has the windshield wiper and heater/defroster kit also installed because CT required them for Inspection. It also has a cd stereo with aux input which makes cruising extra fun for longer trips to car shows. I’ve driven it about 3000 miles in the two seasons it’s been on the road. I’m unsure of the actual mileage I’ve done with it because the speedo gear in the tranny doesn’t catch the sender enough to display properly (I haven’t made it a point to fix yet). The only other item to be attended to is the tires on the rear are a tiny bit too fat for the rims and they scrape inside the wheel wheels when hitting a big bump (I should have bought the next width smaller or still might if it don’t sell soon) as it could use a smaller size. And other than one of the donor wheels being banged up by a curb (I’m looking for a new wheel and can’t find one with use) it’s awesome and needs nothing but a new owner.
