Quality Backdraft cars start in the low 40's used and go up. Shell Valley, Factory Five would be in that range. Quality can vary dramatically between FFR builds from what I have seen.

Also you are most likely looking at a an older 5.0 mustang motor at the price point.

There are always exceptions but this is what I have seen in looking for the past 3-4 months. Look at cobra country website to get a sense for the market and ebay.
You can get a nice Superformance at the $40 range, also Backdrafts are awesome and there in that range. I would buy used, especially if I was looking at a Backdraft or similar there are so many different kind of builds, colors, etc in those models...Plus you will save money doing it that way, trust me been there...
