Not sure why you guys are concerned about buying an early BDR. I've owned No. 88 for 6 trouble free years, in fact I'm really glad I got an early car. I saw one of the first backdrafts built and knew I had to have one way back in 2002. I did install the flanges on the side pipes and I ran my seat belts through the back firewall. And I've made some other changes, but that's just part of the fun of owning a car like this.
Reg / Backdraft make a great car and buying an older one is just fine.

Just my .02 worth.
