When you order the kit, it comes with a body and interior, steering components, a fuel system, and front suspension and brake parts. You must provide the engine, transmission, rear end and brakes, wheels, tires, battery, fuel pump, and paint (unless you want your hot rod to look like an unpainted World War II fighter plane.)
Factory Five offers kits to mount a sizable variety of crate engines, including Ford’s Coyote and 5.0, as well as a Chevy Small Block or Chevy LS. Given the sheer ubiquity and popularity of any of those powerplants, you likely won’t have too much difficulty finding a suitable engine for your build. Additionally, the power produced by any of those engines has virtually no ceiling, given the sheer variety of aftermarket parts. It could be a junkyard find or a brand-new custom-built block with more horsepower than several Corvettes.
Provided you have enough know-how to put together an entire car, the Factory Five ’33 Hot Rod kit might be the next project for you. Now, all you have to do is choose what engine you’re going to throw in there.
