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 3 series. 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 Backdraft RT3B from Vintage Motorsports was designed from the ground up to showcase what can be done visually and technically with these vehicles. The paint is modern and unique. The interior features our Touring design. The suspension system has been treated to upgrades. But the magic happens under the hood where the VMS R SPEC Coyote 5.0 takes this all to a new level with 550HP and a redline approaching 8,000rpm.

Contact us if you would like this roadster tailored to you with additonal options or equipment. ATTENTION: This Backdraft Roadster is registered in MA under the new process and is fully legal and exempt, perfect for a MA resident.
