1968 Ford Mustang Bullitt - Steve McQueen Tribute

Many consider that Mustang Bullitt that Steve Mcqueen drove, the movie that sent this 1968 Ford Mustang Bullitt Fastback into the embracing arms of history, is a movie that's only worth watching if you enjoy seeing footage of San Francisco in the late '60s or if you're a car guy, and you want to see two muscle cars going at it on the winding streets of the City by the Bay.

Up front, the Ford Bullitt Mustang GT (Steve McQueen) has the emblematic black mesh grille with the chromed bar that elegantly frames it. There are the customary six-piece taillights, three on either side, wrapped within the confines of the upper trim element that follows the top edge of the rear fascia and the thick rear bumper that incorporates in the profile of the rear center panel.

The original steering wheel that came with this package was exchanged for a Shelby Mustang wheel with the rim wrapped in black leather rather than the wood you usually see.

With a curb weight of about 2,800 pounds, the Ford Mustang GT Fastback with the 390 engine in it had a top speed of 105 mph and covered the quarter mile in under 14 seconds.
