WARRANTY

Balance of factory warranty through November 2019

The Backdraft RT3 Roadster is not a kit, it is a hand crafted replica of the infamous British roadster with an American V8 that captured every car lover's heart in 1965. It combines the historic looks of the original with the modern performance underpinnings of a BMW. The result is a stunning recreation that maintains legendary visuals while offering industry leading comfort and safety. Through continuous improvement and refinement the Backdraft Roadster has reached the top of its class for price versus performance and features.

This heavily optioned Backdraft GT was completed in November of 2018 and delivered to its first owner in Texas. After several months of use and only 1,000 miles the owner felt the car was "too nice to drive, a piece of art" and decided it would belong with someone who would drive it and enjoy it. The car is virtually new and offered at a significant savings from the original purchase price.

Contact us if you would like this roadster tailored to you with additional options or equipment.

Call or email us today it you have any questions prior to purchasing this automotive icon.
