Default BDR1078 - On the way ...
Plycar arrives in the morning to pickup Brian's Backdraft RT3 Roadster. Finished in Silver with Black Stripes. Brian contacted us a few months ago looking at a car we had on consignment. Once we started talking about budget for the purchase I offered him the opportunity to join the growing list of Backraft owners with our VMS 427X engine offering and he jumped on it. A nice touch on his car is the addition of the black wheel centers that really compliment the overall color combo.

A little YouTube of the first drive in Brian's #1078:



And some photos before it left:

Thanks Art! I'll send you my email today!

The car does look awesome Jay!

If anyone out there is surfing these forums like I did long before purchasing, do not hesitate to work with this group. You will not be disappointed. I can't say enough great things about Vintage Motorsports. Jay, Brian and the crew are a first class outfit.

Sweeeet. Aston Martin One-77. I think with the exchange rate that car is about 1.4 million USD? That's an expensive load of cargo there!!

What kind of stick shift post/handle combo is that? Looks more user freindly than the longer stock one?

It's a Hurst short shifter and classic black shift knob. Both of them are available through Vintage Motorsports at: Welcome to VINTAGE Motorsports Online Store
