Looking for a new TURNKEY
New to site. I'm looking to buy a NEW TURNKEY with a 427 and IRS. Narrowed my search to BD, ERA, & SPF. Looking to spend no more that $70K. Need advice on most bang for the buck, quality, reliability, ride. Not for racing. Any suggestions appreciated. Live on Long Island.

I believe your price ceiling has ruled out both ERA and SPF for brand new builds. Used, will open up all three for your consideration. Both of those makes (ERA & SPF) will probably cost more than your $70k ceiling to build and license. That leaves BDR.
Check out their website and see what you can get for your $70k. If you're willing to consider a used cobra, then for $70k you will have lots of choices. You can't go wrong with either of the three makes. |
There are quite a few choices on Ebay right now on brand new Backdrafts. This one would be my top choice.
1965 Shelby Backdraft RT3 completed by Vintage Motorsports | eBay |
Now, if you're interested in buying a used one I can cut you a deal on mine :)

Give me a call. We have several in stock at your price point ready to deliver. Can also build what you want if I do not have it. We are just on the other side of the Long Island sound from you and can service and maintain vehicle for you with our pickup service.
Toll Free: 888.427.1965 Have the white car that was posted above and also a Guardsman Blue / W. White Stripes with same engine setup. Both cars are below your target budget. |
I owned a BD as my first Cobra and it was a really nice car. I swapped out to the 18" wheels for 15" wheels from Vintage Wheels as I preferred the overall look. I never bought a car from Vintage Motorsports but did by a lot of parts from them. They are TOP NOTCH !!!!

You stated you wanted a 427. Do you want a 427 FE like the original cars or a stroked 427 Windsor based small block?
|
thanks, but not in black.

I saw BD dealer at B-J Mohegun Sun and spoke with Glenn Owen. Sat in one and seat could be wider...and I'm not a big guy...5'8" 180 lbs. Otherwise i liked.
|
Is price negotiable on an ordered car?

We can do a new SPF for about $75K with a Windsor 427 depending on the chassis options you want and the power level of the engine. If you are not married to the "427" cubes thing, you can get a 392/396 stroker that will provide the same or greater power level for a lot less.
It is worthwhile stretching a little to get what you really want and not selling off a "make-do" car in a short period of time. Currently we have an SPF promotion that provides over $3000 of options at no cost. If you want info give us a call. |

I have not priced it recently but an FE engine setup will pose some challenge to your budget limit. If you could email me directly I could work on it for you. |

Jay, if you rally need to know what we can do for that figure I'm sure you can have someone pose as a prospect and get a quote. I don't ask what you sell your product for, because honestly, we really rarely go head to head. Your buyers want a Cobra styled hot rod and our buyers are looking for something else. Neither is "wrong", it's just different strokes for different folks. |

Browse our Cars | Hillbank Motor Corporation And I'm wondering what you can offer for $75k with a 427 Windsor, new for this figure. I am happy to share our price on whatever you like since it is publicly available on my site, eBay, in my booth etc. No mystery. |
