Mk4 Roadster The World’s Best Selling Replica More than 15 years have passed since my brother and I launched the first Factory Five. Back in 1995, kit cars were at opposite ends of the spectrum. There were well-built but expensive replicas on one end, and poorly built, inexpensive “kit cars” at the other end. This is still mostly true today, except for a hot little replica made by a small group of wingnuts at a company called Factory Five Racing. At the heart of this revolution is technology that enables us to deliver a better product at a better price. That technology is applied to our products by race car guys and engineers, not salesmen. People who love what they do, who love the customers they work for, and who are an active part of the car building community. The design had humble beginnings in a small shop in Massachusetts in 1995. Since then, the Factory Five Roadster has literally taken over the replica industry. Our cars have won more car show awards, battled for more racing wins, and received more accolades and recognition from the press than any other company in the history of the industry. More importantly, Factory Five owners have become a true community… the largest, most loyal, and most helpful customer group anywhere. Perhaps the biggest reason we are so dominant is that for more than 15 years, we have consistently delivered on the promise that these cars hold. The result of your decision to go with Factory Five will be that the car you get will be easier to build than you thought, better engineered than you knew, and will drive and perform better than you could ever have dreamed. All along the way you’ll meet the best people in the world as you join the Factory Five Racing Owners Group. If you trust us with your lifelong dream, we will make sure that the reality lives up to your expectations. Thousands of people have trusted us with this job and we haven’t let a single one of them down… and we won’t let you down.

Dave Smith President

“Factory Five has quite literally changed the kit car industry… First and foremost, they build a decent car — actually, they build a truly awesome car. In fact their design philosophy is completely foreign to what is standard practice in the kit car industry. The car is built more like a GT racer than a kit car…” Tim Suddard, Editor Grassroots Motorsports Magazine

Mk4 Design Better Than it Ever Was There can be no greater testimony to a legacy than to continue it. The Factory Five Racing Mk4 Roadster is designed to accurately reproduce the looks of the legendary cars of the 60s, keeping its essence intact, while using modern technology, parts, and materials to improve performance, reliability, and comfort. The world’s best selling vintage replica of all-time began with this simple but revolutionary concept. The combination of vintage design and style with modern technology and engineering results in a vehicle kit that delivers period correct styling without compromising daily driver dependability, comfort, and performance. Technology delivers better quality AND more affordability. Director of Engineering Jesper Ingerslev integrates the latest SolidWorksTM CAD/CAM software in our designs.

“…We like the Factory Five not only for the level of enjoyment a person can have with it strapped to his backside, but for the great engineering and business feat it is…” Jim Smart, Editor Mustang & Fords Magazine

Mk4 Concept Build Your Mk4 Roadster TWO Ways There are two ways to build your Factory Five Mk4 Roadster. You can use parts from a Mustang donor car (Base Kit) or you can get all new parts from us (Complete Kit).

Base Kit - $12,990 The original Factory Five Mk1 Roadster was based on the innovation of using running gear from a single donor vehicle—namely, the high performance Ford Mustang. The concept was, and still is, so simple. If you have our base kit and running gear parts from a 1987-2004 Mustang GT donor car, you already have all the parts you need to build and drive your car!

Complete Kit - $19,990 Over the years we have expanded our chassis kit to include factory-new parts as well. Our Mk4 complete kit delivers to you… well, a complete kit. The only things you’ll need are your own engine/transmission/rear end assembly, wheels/tires, and paint. Either way you choose to build your Factory Five Roadster, we have engineered the kit to make the process of building your dream as simple and straightforward as possible. The completed car will look like a factory-new 1965 roadster, but will drive like a modern car.

“Brawny good looks, high quality materials, outta-my-way exhaust note, abundant thrust. A primal brute that will confirm all your motherin-law’s worst suspicions.” Larry Webster, Editor, Car and Driver Magazine

Mk4 Frame and Chassis Authentic Design, Race-Proven Engineering You want to compare kits? Start with the frame. The artistry, strength, and complexity of the Factory Five Mk4 frame is reason enough to stop looking right here. The beauty of our design is accentuated by the fact that it is stronger and more rigid than you’ll realistically need. We use an authentic 4” round tube design. We feel strongly that a quality replica should have a period correct, 4” round tube frame, just like the original legend. The tubular ladder-style frames used in the original 1960s AC cars are more than beautiful, they are representative of a period of automotive design that is legendary. We chose to use this style of frame despite the manufacturing difficulty and cost, since a huge part of a quality replica is its faithfulness to the spirit of the original cars. While originality is very important, if the frame doesn’t perform, what good is it? We kept the design style, but used CAD technology, better materials, and more consistent manufacturing methods to make it more than twice as strong. Since 1995, the Factory Five Roadster frame has become known for its strength and ability to protect its occupants. With over 800 welds and hundreds of individual pieces of steel, the Mk4 frame is both engineering excellence and functional automotive art. The frame is a completely welded assembly and requires no welding or cutting. When you see Factory Five cars winning national races or lifting the tires clear off the ground, check out the “straight-as-an-arrow” frame quietly doing its job. There is no finer replica frame. Period.

CAD/CAM-based jigs are built with laser-cut tooling steel and hold parts to a high degree of accuracy. The Mk4 frame and frame tooling (jig) were designed using state-of-the-art SolidWorksTM software.

Hot Rod Magazine

Nov/Dec 2005

For decades, “kit car” meant missing parts, shoddy workmanship, horrible chopper-gun fiberglass, and a bundle of parts destined to gather dust in the garage with no realistic hope of getting put together. If that’s how you define a kit car – and many people do – then a Factory Five needs a different label, as it comes complete as advertised, and if you can’t finish it in a year or so... well, you’re just not trying. It’s pretty obvious that Factory Five is in another league, rising far above the stigma that has befallen kit cars since those dark days of the VW bug-based trash that belittled the genre. It really doesn’t get much easier, considering you’re building a car from scratch. Understand that you have to know your way around a wrench and a rivet gun before taking on a project of this sort, but you also don’t need to be a NASCAR Nextel Cuplevel fabricator. The Factory Five Roadster... is a brutal handful in the best possible way. We were shocked at how tight the FFR car is. We went in expecting the equivalent of a home-built, which means rattletrap that’s painful to drive and twitchy at speed. But the FFR doesn’t rattle, it doesn’t shake, it’s smooth as a Fox-body Mustang, and it’s fast. Very fast. An entire day spent driving several radically different versions of FFR cars, from factory demos to pure home-builts, solidified the opinion that these are real cars, not toys. If you’ve thought about building an FFR yourself, don’t be afraid... the end product is a brutal little road rocket that’s enormous fun to drive. Rob Kinnan Hot Rod Magazine

Our welded parts are made in

Mk4 Frame

the USA with American labor.

A Great Car Starts with a Great Frame Today’s fourth-generation Mk4 Roadster frame has benefited from over 15 years of refinement and development. It is both lightweight (321 lbs) and strong. We use high quality precision cut plate steel with 1010 and 1020 DOM tubing. The Mk4 frame stands head and shoulders above the original 1965 legend thanks to better tools, better materials, and modern technology.

Hood, doors and trunk are all hinged to the structural frame, not the fiberglass body.

The dash/cowl hoop is 0.10” thick wall steel, welded to the frame as part of the cockpit surround cage. Many fiberglass bucket replicas have a flimsy dash hoop bolted to the floor.

The Mk4 chassis features a beautiful round tube front X-member which helps make for an authentic and strong chassis.

Plate steel is laser-cut from high quality A-36 steel stock.

The 4” round tube main rails are made from higher quality steel and are thicker than the original frames: 0.120” wall DOM (drawn over mandrel) tubing, up from .095” in the original 1960s frames.

6

Engine, transmission and suspension mounts are ready to accept bolt-on components.


The Factory Five Mk4 frame is computer designed on Solidworks™ software Ž

using Hewlett Packard workstations.

ÂŽ

The driver-side roll bar is higher and stronger than the original, with passenger-side mounts on every frame so you can add a passenger roll bar anytime.

Front and rear energy absorbing crumple zones help protect driver and passenger.

Welded steel side impact bars, door steel, footbox, and cockpit dash hoop surrounds help make the Mk4 frame far safer than original cars.

The cockpit and footbox areas feature a steel cage surround structure taken directly from our NASA racing series.

We added a backbone section to the original ladder design and extra perimeter tubing that more than doubles torsional rigidity of the Mk4 frame over the original.

Triangulation bracing has been added to the front suspension, vertical supports, dash, rear sub-frame, and trunk.

Mk4 Aluminum Panels “This ain’t no kit car.” – Mustang & Fords Magazine A traditional kit car may use a fiberglass tub and body bolted to a cheap platform frame, but you won’t find modern streetcars or racecars built that way. Even vintage 1960s cars like the original ACs, Ferraris and GT-40s used proven racecar construction methods of tubular frames and riveted/bonded aluminum panels. The aluminum chassis panels found in our Mk4 kits combine this traditional quality with the latest CAD/CAM technologies and superior construction methods. The entire cockpit, trunk and engine bay of the Factory Five Mk4 is precision laser-cut 6061-T6 aluminum, without any fiberglass structural items. Underneath these aluminum panels, a matrix of steel tubing provides support surfaces for a close, tight-fitting installation. Why 6061-T6 aluminum? Conventional 4000-series aluminum is easier to bend and form, but not as strong in tension. We invested in learning how to correctly form the 6061-T6 to get the benefit of increased strength for the same weight.

Underneath our hand-laid fiberglass composite body are almost 40 individual aluminum panels attached to our elegant tubular steel frame.

The strong foundation of our world-class frame combined with our aluminum chassis panels bonded and riveted to perimeter frame tubing represents just one of the major design and functional differences between the Mk4 and almost every other replica sold today.

Since 1995 we’ve built and shipped more than 8,000 body shells, over 30,000 body panels, and built over 100 complex molds and tools.

8


Mk4 Composite Body Period-Correct Shape, Made Correct. Period. The body shape of the Factory Five Mk4 is extremely accurate benefitting from, and a direct descendent of two original cars, CSX 3042 and the late Dick Smith’s famous #198, CSX 3035. The composite body is a one-piece hand-laid vinylester part that is a precise replica of the original, and engineered to complement the strong steel and aluminum chassis which provides structural support. The hood, doors and trunk have molded liners and come complete with hinges and pre-drilled mounting holes. The body shell is laminated to a thickness of 3/16” all around, with a .015” red gel coat outer finish.

®

We use an Eastman M9000 CNC cloth-cutting machine to ensure consistency of all composite fabrics and patterns.

Mk4 body shells are shipped pre-assembled to the frame. The parts are unfinished (taken right out of the mold and requiring bodywork). Our kit uses router trimmed panels instead of molded edges. This eliminates air voids on tight radius areas and enables us to make close fits around all hood, door and trunk panels.

Finished parts are cut and trimmed on our RPT Technologies robotic trimming machine. ®

Mk4 Front Suspension & Brakes The ugly truth is that most kits, hot rods and customs handle terribly. The artistry and strength of the Factory Five Roadster chassis would be a waste without an equally well-designed suspension. Computer simulations and hundreds of hours on the track under the most extreme conditions have helped our engineers design a world-class suspension that simply works great.

Front Suspension Base Kit • Fully independent front suspension utilizing unequal length upper and lower a-arms • High-end Koni mono-tube adjustable coil-over rod-end shocks • Uses donor Mustang front lower arms, spindles, and brakes • Optional tubular steel lower control arms

Front Suspension Complete Kit • The Factory Five Racing Mk4 complete kit includes the entire front suspension assembly and Ford brakes. • Includes Ford GT brakes with 11” rotors, twin piston calipers, and stainless steel brake lines, fittings, and fasteners • Includes brand-new spindles and tubular control arms

Brakes/Wheels Rear end and brakes can be used from a Mustang donor car. We also sell brand new 8.8” Ford rear ends with Mustang brake kits. We offer an optional Halibrand replica wheel that is affordably priced and in the correct sizes/backspaces to work with our car.

Mk4 Rear Suspensions The Mk4 Roadster Chassis Kit is delivered ready to accept bolt-on rear suspension components in one of three (3) rear suspension configurations:

1. Four Link Rear Suspension Our standard 4-link suspension comes with custom anti-squat geometry and ready to accept Ford Mustang 8.8” solid axle donor rear suspension parts. About half of FFR Roadster kits are shipped with the affordable standard 4-link rear suspension, which is a great performance street car suspension.

1. Standard 4-Link Rear Suspension

2. Three Link Rear Suspension The upgraded 3-link rear suspension is standard in Mk4 complete kits and all FFR Challenge Series cars. It includes the frame brackets, panhard rod, control arms, coil-over shocks and springs. Recognized as a proven and worthy upgrade to the standard Mustang 4-link, this suspension eliminates any bind and provides an amazingly predictable ride at the track or on the street.

3. Independent Rear Suspension Our Independent Rear Suspension upgrade is designed for those looking for the most comfort and authenticity, and can be added to either the base or the complete kit. It includes a welded-in cage, upper and lower tubular control arms, high-end Koni mono-tube rod-end coil-over shocks (matched to the fronts), and custom assembled axles and CV joints. The IRS option for the Mk4 kit requires the 8.8” center section (from a 1989-1997 Ford Thunderbird), rear spindles, and brakes.

3. Optional Independent Rear Suspension

“This car really works well in the turns. It has to be one of the best handling cars I’ve ever driven.” Dick Smith, Six time SCCA & USRRC Champion & all-time winningest 427 racer.

Mk4 Running Gear Put a Ford in your Ford It’s important when taking on this project to decide on an engine and transmission configuration that will deliver the power you need and that is within your budget. You can use the full spectrum of Ford engines in either our base kit or complete kit package. The Mk4 base kit is configured to use the entire engine/transmission/rear-end out of the Mustang donor car (5.0 or 4.6 liter V-8, T-5, T-45 or 3650 transmission, and Ford 8.8” rear end). The kit is designed so that these parts literally bolt right in. You can use almost any Ford engine in the Factory Five Mk4. Select from: • 289/302 • 351W and derivates • 390/427 FE • 429/460/514 crate engines • 4.6L SOHC & DOHC Modular V8 • 5.0L Coyote Modular V8

“The Factory Five kit is a sensible approach to building a replica… it also gives away very little in terms of performance, handling and reliable transportation.” Jim Youngs, Editor Kit Car Builder Magazine

Factory Five has been a regular part of the Ford Racing display truck at major car shows and race events since 2004. Factory Fives have been featured by Ford at the annual SEMA Show and in the Ford Racing Parts catalog.

“All too often in the past, some manufacturers charged much more for trash, or parts that customers never received. Well, my friends, I am here to tell you that this company is different.” Doug McCleary Author, The Car Builder’s Handbook


Mk4 Interior Climb into the past. Rocket into the future. The connection between man, machine, and road is experienced behind the wheel, so we’ve strived to capture the essence of the vintage car interior while improving on cockpit space, ergonomics, sound/heat control and safety features. Inside you’ll find the largest cockpit possible for the car’s authentic exterior dimensions. The Mk4 has good legroom and excellent front/rear visibility.

“Station to station at Factory Five, it is clear that quality principles are in full force.” Craig Fitzgerald Editor, Hemmings Muscle Machines

Mk4 Performance continued... With a power-to-weight ratio that can be as low as 3.5 pounds per horsepower, the Mk4 Roadster is a match for any sports car made today. Zero-to-sixty acceleration times in the three second range, and 10-second 1/4 mile passes are not uncommon. Factory Five customer Steve Berg has run his own FFR Roadster down the drag strip at an amazing 9.13 seconds at 154 MPH! With a well-built, modestly powered FFR Roadster, you will simply own any stoplight. When it comes to road holding, our cars fare equally well. FFR cars have routinely run in the 1.00 to 1.05 range in skid pad tests on street tires. That means your FFR turns as fast as it falls through the air! On a track or a twisty section of road you will hold a line that others in lesser cars (like a Porsche 911, 0.91G) will not be able to hold. These numbers are borne out in the real world by the staggering number of autocross and road racing wins FFR customers have racked up over the years. At a vehicle weight about 2,200 pounds, braking is also impressive with the stock Mustang GT brakes.

Mk4 Safety Our Safety Record is No Accident. In the world of hot rods, customs and kits we stand miles above the crowd. As the only replica company that has a dedicated racing series, we speak from a unique perspective. We have a company that is single-minded in our passion for racing and performance, so safety is our daily religion. You can trust our products because the chassis that you build as a hot rod project is the same one that our team trusts with their lives on the track. Safety is a combination of good engineering, correct materials, and careful construction. The legends of the 60s were built not only from racing victories, but from tragedies as well. Back then, many basic safety features were either not used or not available. The Mk4 is stronger, faster, AND safer than the original cars.

• Low vehicle center of gravity and balanced 45% - 55% weight distribution • Energy absorbing tubular steel frame and aluminum chassis panels (not fiberglass) • Front and rear energy-absorbing crumple zones • SCCA-derived footbox steel tubing protection and cockpit steel surround structure • Side impact bars and beefy plate steel door hinges. Frame mounted doors • Externally mounted and shielded fuel tank with fuel pump impact shut-off switch (from the Mustang donor) • Collapsible steering column • Driveshaft safety bars • 3 point, 1.5” or 2” OD, .120” wall, mandrel bent, frame-mounted driver’s roll bar (optional passenger roll bar available.) • 3” Simpson brand, racing H-harness for both driver and passenger. • Vintage components that are individually FMVSS compliant (ie. lighting, carpets, seating material, safety glass, etc) • Manufacturing controls that maintain high degree of consistency in welding and fabrication • Acceleration, turning and stopping abilities above almost any current production vehicle

FFR’s Dave Smith rolled his car at the ‘97 Run & Gun competition at Gateway Raceway. The car was repaired the same day and won the three day event! Since 2000, the Factory Five Challenge Series is the only component car racing series in the world.

How Difficult is it to Build? Engineered to be Built The Factory Five Mk4 Roadster was engineered to be built at home using ordinary tools. But don’t take our word for it. Factory Five Racing is the only replica maker that offers a comprehensive 3-day build school. You can build a Mk4 roadster with 12 classmates under the direct instruction of a professional mechanic/instructor. Regardless of skill level, starting with a well-engineered kit is most of the battle. The Factory Five kit is designed to be put together by a person at home in his or her own garage. Our experience leading the component car industry—with over 7,000 kits built and shipped as of 2010—means that our roadster goes together the way it’s supposed to.

Over 1,500 students have completed the Factory Five 3-day build school at Mott Community College in Michigan.

• A customer with a working knowledge of cars and their components can build one of our kits at home using ordinary tools—no welding or fabrication required. • The average kit can be built in about 250 hours. • The impact of the massive online FFR owners’ group forum cannot be understated. A huge online community of kit builders is waiting for you right now to suggest tips and swap ideas—all you have to do is log on and start asking questions. There is not a single kit available today that is as well engineered and designed as a Factory Five. Don’t take our word for it. Consult with customers online. Enroll in the three-day build school. Visit our facility, speak to an engineer, and check out the parts personally. You will build this car yourself, but at the end of the day you’ll have a lot of the very best people in your corner.

28

The Factory Five build school also teaches a 3day Hot Rod build class.
