CRANSTON, RI - September 1, 2010 – Tasca Ford is pleased to announce that we will be offering professionally-built Factory Five '33 Hot Rods as a complete rollers. The cars will come completely assembled and painted (less engine & transmission). Custom paint jobs will also be available. Vehicles can be purchased directly from our dealership or from Factory Five Racing, in Wareham, MA.
"We are excited to be building custom Hot Rods right here in New England. This has been an idea that David Smith [President of Factory Five] and I have talked about for the last year. I was so impressed the first time I got to tour Factory Five. It is a first class operation and they build the best ‘33 Hot Rod chassis package on the market. They have been very successful selling these cars in “build-it-yourself” packages. It only made sense to offer the Hot Rod as a complete roller with the skills that we have at the Tasca Mod Shop. This new program will allow Hot Rod enthusiasts all over the world who may not be comfortable assembling the car on their own, the option of getting a professionally-built custom car at a great price." - Bob Tasca III, Tasca Ford
“This program brings together two great New England companies. Tasca’s legendary history with Ford and their unquestioned racing/automotive expertise is a perfect match for our modern engineering and performance-based chassis designs. It is such an honor to bring manufacturing jobs to New England and to do so with an exciting and global-reaching product like our new ‘33 Hot Rod.” - Dave Smith, President Factory Five Racing
Come to the Tasca Ford Open House event on Sept 11, 2010, in honor of Bob Tasca Sr. to see the new car up close and get full details.
