This Factory Five Racing Mk4 Roadster was built in 2021–2022 and shows 1,200 miles on its digital odometer. It is powered by a BluePrint Engines 347ci stroker V8 fed by a Holley Sniper EFI system and a March Performance serpentine accessory drive, linked to a Tremec TKO 600 five‑speed manual transmission and a Moser 8.8 solid rear end with 3.55 gears. Finished in House of Color Galaxy Grey with Marigold over‑the‑top stripes over black vinyl, the car rides on staggered 17×9 front and 17×10 rear vintage‑style Halibrand wheels, with power steering, a three‑link rear suspension with Koni adjustable coilovers, and four‑wheel red Wilwood disc brakes. Additional equipment includes a driver’s side rollbar hoop, a hood scoop, ceramic‑coated side‑exit exhaust pipes, a wood‑rimmed steering wheel, and Simpson four‑point harnesses. Built and offered by the owner, the car carries a Minnesota title.
The fiberglass bodywork was completed by Vescio’s Customizing of Rogers, Minnesota. Equipment includes a single roll hoop, a hood scoop, a LeMans‑style fuel filler cap, a chrome driver’s side mirror, a top‑of‑windshield‑mounted rearview mirror, a polished billet aluminum passenger‑side mirror, and ceramic‑coated side‑exit exhaust pipes made by Boig.
The staggered 17×9 front and 17×10 rear vintage‑style Halibrand wheels are mounted with 245/40 front and 315/35 rear Mickey Thompson Street Comp tires. The car is equipped with a three‑link rear suspension and Koni adjustable coilovers, power steering, and four‑wheel red Wilwood disc brakes.
The cockpit features low‑back bucket seats upholstered in black vinyl, with Simpson four‑point racing harnesses, a carbon‑fiber dash, a lockable glovebox, and Herb Fraser door panels.
The wood‑rimmed steering wheel fronts Speedhut instrumentation, including a reverse‑sweep 180‑mph speedometer, a tachometer, and supplementary gauges; the clock was removed in favor of a custom Speedhut fuel pressure gauge, and the water temperature gauge was converted to Fahrenheit. The digital odometer shows 1,200 miles.
The 347ci stroker V8 was built by BluePrint Engines and is equipped with a Holley Sniper fuel injection system on a BluePrint custom dual‑plane manifold. The engine uses the March Performance serpentine accessory drive kit and a custom FFMetal battery box in the trunk, with custom 1/0 battery cables running from the trunk to the bellhousing/starter.
Power reaches the rear wheels through the Tremec TKO 600 five‑speed manual transmission and a Moser 8.8 solid rear end with 3.55 gears. The chassis is powder‑coated black and fitted with a driveshaft loop and an eStopp electronic parking brake actuator, with custom‑length brake cables made to fit the car.
The car is titled in Minnesota as a 2021 Mk4 Roadster. Its VIN/serial number is F5R1010032RD, matching the Factory Five Racing build plate. It was built by an ex‑ASC‑certified mechanic with dealership experience at both Chevrolet and Chrysler, plus engine‑ and boat‑building experience in drag boat racing.
