The Best of 1965… and today.
More than ten years ago Factory Five began designing the Type 65 Coupe as a pure replica, dedicated to the authenticity and artistry of the original 1965 World Championship Coupes. The Factory Five Type 65 Coupe captures the look and feel of the original 200 mph GT cars, but with today’s engineering, it is more reliable and performs better. Today you can build and pilot a car that is almost identical to those driven by guys like Bob Bondurant, Dan Gurney and Ken Miles. The only difference is that these days, technology has enabled vintage lines to merge with modern comfort and performance.

While the car is a steel and aluminium, wooden steering wheel, fire breathing monster vintage race car, it has benefited from a good amount of refinement and modern engineering. Like the Roadster, we wanted to capture that vintage look and feel, but use modern running gear and enhance comfort and driveability.

|
Today Factory Five Coupes have indeed become known as the most authentic and accurate replica, but now the design has grown to encompass a much larger role. What began as a replica of a track-only race car, has evolved into a chassis kit capable of delivering everything from open-track dominance to daily driver comfort. Customisation has entered the Coupe world and today the Coupe you build is up to you.

Like the Roadster kit, the Coupe kit is a Complete Kit for our UK customers. This gives you just about every nut and bolt you’ll need to build the car (except for engine/transmission, wheel/tyres, and paint). The car is built using all new parts. No matter what, the car will add its own large and loud footprint to the 1965 Coupe legacy.
