Today, most builders of these classic Hot Rods get their parts from a variety of sources; frames come from one source, the body from another and so on. Factor Five saw an opportunity to provide builders with a "complete kit" with all-new parts except for running gear. Because Factory Five Racing is a performance company at heart, they couldn’t just reproduce the original. They had to create a car that is wider, lower, and more radical than the original. The basic kit costs $19,990 and comes with everything needed to complete the car with the exception of the power train, wheels and paint. Optional items include a hard top at $1,999 and fenders with running boards at $1,299.

As mentioned, the complete kit costs $19,990. However, if funds or storage space is limited the ’33 Hot Rod can be purchased in stages. The Stage One package consists of the frame, suspension, steering and everything you need to build a running chassis. The Stage Two package consists of the body, panels, interior, lighting, trim and everything you need to finish your Hot Rod project. Both stages currently cost $9,990 each. The prices are very reasonable considering that most companies will charge considerably than the cost of a complete kit when buying the kit in phases.
