FFR Customer Steve W. Starting Mk4 Blue Angels Tribute Build

Factory Five customer Steve W. from North Carolina came by the other day with his son Brian to pick-up his new Mk4 Roadster kit.  Steve has been planning this build for quite a while and is constructing the car as a Navy Blue Angels tribute Mk4.  Steve is a US Navy veteran and his son Brian is attending a Naval Academy studying Mechanical Engineering.  Brian has been offered a summer internship here at Factory Five.

The weather this past week has been tough in New England, so we loaded Steve’s trailer inside the building.

We’ll keep you updated with Steve’s build as several magazines have expressed interest in the car, and Steve has considered doing a community build for the chassis and running gear sections.
