This Factory Five ’35 Hot Rod Truck was assembled by the seller, and it is powered by a 5.3-liter Chevrolet V8 equipped with a FiTech Retro LS electronic fuel injection system, a Holley intake manifold, a serpentine accessory drive, and Hooker exhaust manifolds. The engine is linked to a column-shifted 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission and a Ford 8.8” rear end, and the truck rides on adjustable coilovers, a three-link rear setup, and Halibrand-style 18” and 20″ wheels. Interior appointments include black upholstery, Vintage Air climate control, a Bluetooth-capable head unit, and power windows, while a wood-lined cargo bed, side exhaust outlets, LED lighting, and four-wheel disc brakes are among the other highlights. Since the build was completed, the truck has participated in two Hot Rod Power Tours. This ’35 Hot Rod Truck is now offered with a Georgia title in the seller’s name listing the truck as a 2023 Factory Five.
The hand-laid composite body is styled after a 1935 Ford and is finished in blue. Exterior details include a polished grille insert, an aluminum firewall, LED headlights and taillights, and side exhaust outlets that pass through the lower corners of the cab.
The cargo bed has bright interior panels, and the wood floor slats are retained by polished runners.
Halibrand-style 18” front and 20″ rear wheels have black centers and are wrapped in 245/40 front and 305/35 rear Nitto NT555 G2 tires. The truck rides on tubular front control arms, a three-link rear setup with a live axle, and adjustable coilovers that are inboard-mounted up front. Braking is handled by four-wheel discs, and an electric parking brake has been installed.
The cab features a split bench seat trimmed in black upholstery with color-coordinated door panels and carpets. Additional appointments include a Vintage Air climate control system, a billet column shifter, a concealed Bluetooth-capable digital media receiver, power windows, and a cupholder. Wrinkles in the dashboard cover can be viewed in the gallery.
The billet steering wheel is mounted to a polished tilt column and sits ahead of a Factory Five instrument cluster that includes a 120-mph GPS speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, and auxiliary gauges. The digital odometer is said to indicates 4,600 miles.
The 5.3-liter Chevrolet V8 is equipped with a FiTech Retro LS programmable EFI system, a Holley intake manifold, a T-sump oil pan, a serpentine accessory drive, and an Edelbrock finned air cleaner lid, valley cover, and valve covers. Hooker manifolds flow into a dual exhaust system, and the aluminum radiator is cooled by an electric puller fan. The seller states that Deutsch connectors were utilized in the majority of the wiring harness.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission and a Ford 8.8” rear end with 3.73:1 gearing and a finned aluminum differential cover.
The car is titled as a 2023 Factory Five using the VIN GA681344. The title carries an “Assembled” notation.
