You know it's really weird, I just looked at the Bullitt chase scene on youtube and then I looked at the chase scene from the Seven up's and it looks to be the same bad guy stunt driver in both movies. Take a look:

Seven up's

Bullitt

Bill Hickman - did the driving in Bullitt, The French Connection and The Seven Ups! (and the '69 hit The Love Bug!)

He was also involved with James Deans racing efforts back in the fifties.

Very interesting read. I hope it's true too. Like it says in the write up; it may bring the Bullitt Mustang owner out of hiding.

I have a customer who has a Mustang that came from a movie car lot and he thinks it may have been used in the movie. It had tell all marks that were in the same places that the movie chase car had. He never really followed up on the connection. Would be cool if it had been in the movie.
