Lot #405 - This Backdraft RT3 Roadster is not a kit; it is a handcrafted re-creation of the infamous British roadster with an American V8 engine and a 5-speed manual transmission. It combines the historic looks of the original with the modern performance underpinnings of a BMW. The result is a stunning re-creation that maintains legendary visuals while offering industry-leading comfort and safety. This Race Red Backdraft RT3B is highly optioned and has been properly maintained by VMS directly during its ownership. The VMS 427X motor puts out well over 500hp to move its 2,450 pounds around quite rapidly. This is a very nice build that goes and shows well. Options include blackout trim, blackout wheels with red chaser stripes, custom Auto Meter gauges, red shift knob, red latch-and-link seatbelts, Ray Dyot mirror, rear 3M paint protection, ceramic-coated headers, ceramic-coated side pipes, Backdraft Billet 427 fender emblems, solid motor mounts, aluminum radiator and shroud, aluminum fuel tank, Diffsonline 3.73 LSD, red caliper covers, oil cooler (simulated), remote clutch reservoir, Gilmer pulley setup, polished engine and Quick Time Steel Bellhousing. **TITLED AS A 2012 ROAD**
