Hope it turns out to be real. What a find. Maybe he has Jim Morrison's Shelby??

Lol...I know someone that knows where Morrisons Shelby is and has been trying to buy it for years.

Welp...... Only one thing to do. Looks like the next project for me to get ready for MCACN 2018 is my Bullitt car! Although mine is a Saddle Interior , it is a factory Highland Green, 4spd, S-Code GT Fastback!

Great...... Another clock starts to tic!

Cheers

It's been said that this so called Bullitt car has Vin #8R02S12558. This car was reportedly crushed after filming as it was in too rough shape for re-sale and liability issues if sold to the public. Vin #8R02S12559- the "Real Bullitt car-is sitting in a shed in the South Eastern 'States-Kentucky/Tennessee by the third owner who refuses to sell it or show it to the public. Apparently car #8R02S12558 is being restored and will be available for viewing this year.

I believe the gentleman in Kentucky - who refused to sell it - has since passed away and his family (son & daughter, I think) are now the keepers of the car. With the 50th Anniversary of Bullitt upcoming I bet it gets flushed out. Apparently Kevin Marti has given the thumbs up on this Mexico car as the "long-thought-crushed" camera car.
