The Backdraft Roadster features fiberglass bodywork laid over a black-finished box frame, and this example is finished in Titanium Silver with black racing stripes. Additional equipment includes a chrome roll hoop, front and rear quick-jack bumperettes, wind wings, a hood scoop, and side-exit exhaust pipes with heat shields in addition to a Raydot-style driver-side mirror, fender vents, and a LeMans-style fuel filler cap. A ceramic coating is said to have been applied in April 2022, and the seller notes chipped paint that can be viewed in the gallery below. A black soft top, side curtains, and a tonneau cover are included in the sale.
Halibrand-style 15″ aluminum wheels wear 235/60 front and 295/60 rear Cooper Cobra Radial GT tires that were reportedly mounted in February 2022. The car is equipped with fully independent suspension with front coilovers as well as front and rear sway bars and four-wheel disc brakes.
The bucket seats are trimmed in black upholstery and are accompanied by a color-coordinated dashboard and door panels with pockets. Black carpets line the floors and are protected by Cobra-logo mats. Additional appointments include multi-point harnesses, sun visors, a dash-mounted rearview mirror, and a chrome fire extinguisher secured atop the transmission tunnel. The shifter boot was replaced in 2022 per the seller.
The woodgrain-rimmed steering wheel fronts VDO instrumentation consisting of a 220-mph speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, and gauges for oil temperature, oil pressure, fuel level, coolant temperature, and voltage. The digital odometer indicates 38k miles, approximately 1k of which were added under current ownership.
The 351ci Windsor V8 was assembled by Specialties Machining of Pompano Beach, Florida, with Wiseco forged pistons, a Comp Cams camshaft, and Edelbrock Performer RPM cylinder heads topped with finned-aluminum valve covers. Additional equipment includes a Holley Double Pumper 750-CFM carburetor, an Edelbrock intake manifold, a Cobra-branded air-filter housing, and an aluminum radiator with dual electric fans. Reported work under current ownership included tuning the carburetor, changing the oil, and replacing the clutch slave cylinder.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Tremec TR-3550 five-speed manual transmission with an aluminum bell housing and a King Cobra clutch kit as well as a BMW-sourced differential with 3.42:1 final-drive gearing. Additional photos of the underside are provided in the gallery.
Build and service records are included in the sale along with Backdraft literature, a car cover, two sets of keys, and side-window covers.
