Description:
This Cobra is listed on several sites for sale and this ad copy is mostly from my ad on Cobra Country. That being said, if you have any questions, fire away.
For Sale: 1965 Backdraft Racing 427SC Roadster, BDR1311. Ford Race Red/black leather upholstery. Built in 2015 and with only 500 miles [800 km] logged (still on MSO), this Roadster is BRAND NEW, and marks another leap forward in Backdraft Racing's design, craftsmanship and performance. By using “V” bandclamps, the mufflers can even be replaced in under 5 minutes with 1-ft. side dumps for even more intimidating big-block rolling thunder! BIG Photo of powerplant: Click Here! Under the hood: 462 cid FE [stroker 428FE/PI delivers 486 hp/ 510 lbs./ft. torque] expertly dyno tuned by the professionals at Grimco Performance. Geartrain: This Roadster's power is delivered to the pavement through a rugged 5-speed Tremec TKO-600 transmission and BMW E-36 rear end with 3:91 gears and positive traction. Upgraded ceramic-coated headers and sidepipes. The Race Red finish contrasts elegantly with the custom black-powder–coated Halibrand 17 knockoff wheels [spinners are polished aluminum], and accentuates the other chromed hardware. In the cockpit: Backdraft's new stitched leather upholstery with black carpeting and black (Legend-correct, aircraft-style) seatbelts. Blackfaced AutoMeter gauges, hardwood-rimmed steering wheel. Asecond Motolita wheel comes with the car as well. The aggressive silhouette of any Backdraft Roadster will reduce any car lover to drooling as is evidenced by the two 1st and one 3rd place finishes in 3 carshows over a recent 2-week period. These sleek aesthetics are rivaled only by the lightening-fast performance delivered by the stroked, bored & fuel-injected genuine 428FE Ford 'Police Interceptor' V8 and the menacing melody that follows, through perfectly tuned custom sidepipes. This Cobra is a perfect storm of exhilaration and acceleration, and serves as a reminder that nostalgia never looked or felt so good. $63k obo, may take Panoz GT/WC as partial trade. Here are a few videos to give you a more complete idea of how cool this big block monster really is!
