Electric and gasoline-powered hot rods built by Factory Five are based on 1933 Fords. The chassis and suspension have been modified to withstand the shocks and stress experienced by a modern high-performance car. The conventional-engine model produces over 300 horsepower, too, and is primarily designed for the track.

In addition to hot rod kits and replicas, Factory Five is also renowned for turning Cobras into Mk3 roadsters as well as building GTM supercars powered by a mid-mounted V8 engine.
