In the Movie "BULLITT",
the chase scene certainly deserves its billing as one of the best
in movie history! There's no camera tricks or special effects
to screw it up, what you see is what you get. It just wouldn't
be the same if one of today's big stars got in his BMW to chase
another guy in a Porsche, complete with special effects. In short,
'Bullitt' uses real craftsmanship! And who could bring the character
of Lt. Frank Bullitt to the movie better than Steve McQueen? No
one! At the car chase beginning, the clicking music begins, all
slow, following him, then the switch, they buckle up, music stronger,
and we're off for a ride of your life!! It will be interesting
to see how the movie " Eleanor" with all the special
effects and the car will be viewed 40 years after the movie. We
even built a nice 427 FE "Eleanor" about 5 years ago
that sold for $175,000. Yes, it was a very nice! But I get a lot
more excited about the BULLITT!! To me it is a BLAST from the
PAST!! The late 1960's Muscle car era, when gas was less than
30 cents a gallon and a movie like "BULLITT" was the
REAL DEAL!! Not a lot of smoke and mirrors. Today the Bullitt
Mustang fastback and the Movie are as popular if not more than
40 years ago!! You need to watch BULLITT several times to understand
everything that was going on in the film. Then you will realize
why it is a "Classic"!! I have been a fan of the movie
"BULLITT" and the "BULLITT" fastback mustang
since the movie, the car and Steve McQueen first hit the big screen
on Oct 17th 1968. The "BULLITT" Mustang is a GREAT LOOKING
car from any angle!! It looks bad to the bone when it is speeding
down the highway or it is just sitting in the parking lot!!

is a great buy and a VERY RARE FIND!! A 1968 BULLITT doesn't usually
last very long on this web site! . You would have a very hard
time finding a nice California GT S Code 390 4 Speed "BULLITT"
like this one!! VERY FEW 1968 Mustang GT "S" Code 390
V/8 4 Speed Fastbacks survived like this one because they were
rode hard and putup wet. Most of them were not this nice after
the first 10 years racing up and down the the highways and drag
strips. Veryfew were this nice after 20 years of everyday use,
much less 40 years later! This GT "S" Code 390 RUNS
OUT very strong and HANDLES GREAT!!! It is definitely a "COOL"
and VERY "FAST" HIGHWAY BULLITT!! It would definitely
be a GREAT BULLITT to use if the was a remake of the BULLITT"
movie! It LOOKS FAST EVEN when it is PARKED!! Nice examples of
the GT S Code Fastbacks and convertibles are becoming more difficult
to find!! They are becoming MORE DESIRABLE EVERYDAY!! A 1968 S
code 4 Speed "BULLITT" is the MOST DESIRABLE of ALL
the 1968 GT's!!! This "BULLITT" defintely won't last
long!!!.
