Provenance:
This gorgeous Backdraft Roadster GT finished in Birch Green is one of the most unique and iconic builds to date. It was assembled in 2021 and when completed, offered by Backdraft Motorsports for sale in late 2021. We became an Authorized Backdraft Dealer in December 2021 and soon after purchased this vehicle for inventory. Upon arrival, we sold the vehicle to its first owner and has remained in Indianapolis since. The first and current owner is a collector and has several other vehicles in the stable. He recently was offered a vehicle he’s been searching for and has decided to let the Birch Green Roadster leave the nest and find a new proud owner.
Since the fall of 2022, vehicle has been stored in a climate controlled garage on a tender fall thru spring and has been driven on beautiful days showing just over 1,200 miles. The driveline is barley broken and has seen routine maintenance from new at The Car Vault in Indianapolis. It was most recently serviced in the fall of 2024 prior to putting the vehicle in winter torage. Vehicle has not seen any accidents nor paint work, is in excellent condition, and ready to be driven and enjoyed.
