Snap on describes their tool making process. How snap on stays in business amazes me.

I used to laugh at these guys products when I was building my Superformance 427/SC, but man they've come a long way. Really world class products now.

Tools used probably cost more than the car its self 🤣

It’ll be more interesting if they can build 4wd & Awd Rally kit chassis, which is similar to Subaru and Mitsubishi, that can be use not just on Track racing only, but off road Rally racing. Especially winter seasons. Suspension can swap from OEM to after market suspension coil over. I’m sure some of us not just want a daily drive car, but a race car as our daily drive for all 4 seasons, Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter.

Oh what it must be like to build a car with all the right tools*That must be what heaven feels like*

Got to love the turbo 4 bangers, reminds of the Formula 1 days when it was not at all unusual to see 2.0 liter 4 engine making around a 1000 hp, but today, we have so much more, better everything, while I wouldn't recommend a 1000 hp 4 cylinder, it sure is fun to think about the possibilities.

2.3 eco boost is basically like my old mazdaspeed 6 2.3 DISI engine. was a very fun engine

I didn't know they were in wareham. Thanks only a 30 minutes drive from where I live and right by the Target I frequent.

Seems like the limitation here is that you're taking high wear parts from your donor car. Control arms, brake calipers, etc. Seems like you would be far better off for them to purchase in bulk the parts you need and ship them to you as part of the kit. They are using all new parts, but if you use a donor car, you are bolting on all of the problems from a worn out old WRX.

Nice Machine. I wonder if the 2.7 Ford Eco V6 would fit?

I was pumped for this 818 until i heard 4 cylinder. SNORESVILLE.

[garretttrickey]

7:56 my milwaukee does that too, randomly lets go of the bit? I feel like these tools have way too much hype.

[pzakkly]

Factory 5 should work on their 818 bodies so they fit better Some of the gaps are just ridiculous ask anyone who’s put together one of these cars

[leeleavelle]

Can i use new parts instead of a donor car? I want to build one of these as a everyday car, and im gonna put the trunk option in, but id rather use new parts

[sirxavior]

Its an interesting idea.I'd' like to build an 818 but i'm not sure about the Subreau Boxer Engine and I read about blown head gaskets or it uses way to much oil as a common problem, its nice to explore a different power plant.

I'm a Automotive Master Mechanic& Technician 40+years exp Factory Five cars are Designed Very well and they have their you know what together. If I or a Clinent of mine was looking for kit car this is place to go. My Favs are Cobra and GMT I've worked on and driven some of the most desired Sports, Muscle cars and High End Exotics from that I know what a winner is and Factory Five Cars are Winners.

Note to Snap-on marketing department. Had these videos been Factory Five with a Snap-on add in, as apposed to being Snap-on with a Factory Five add in, they'd have a view count in the millions....

[Nathan-gjch]

I thinking the trans adapter for the Ford would be 10% of the cost the build.

[Stackedwithcash]

So what is included in a factory five kit? All the parts and the pre welded frame? Is there an instruction manual? Are they street legal?
