Some where some one is driving their collector car for the last time but they don't know it . Drive your car every time like it could be the last memory of it .

we are very happy that the owners decided to take it out of hiding so it can be shared with others and receive its true recognition as the real Bullit mustang !

I have all UNGOLD cars

I'm eating dinner with my Mom and she is telling me she was sitting down having a chat with Alan Trustman  of Bullitt fame  this week.
Good timing!

I am guessing the car is worth well into 7 figures. Can you imagine that temptation?

If he sell's, I hope it is to someone like FoMoCo who can preserve and share the car with others.

I love it, hope they don't mess with it. I vote to keep it "as is"

Kudos for integrity

Shawn is a true gentleman to finally bring out the Bullitt for everyone to see, timing couldn't be more perfect, here at the '68 celebrating 50 years and the new Bullitt coming out. So Awesome!!!!

Have you guys seen this on youtube?   Jay Leno with the new 2019 and the original '68 with Shawn!!!

Does anyone know if the car is going "On Tour"?
Having Steve McQueen's grand daughter there made the reveal just awesome
If I had unlimited $'s and pit the in a glass sided trailer and go to every car related thing until I was too old and feeble to do so. Then hire somebody to keep it going. maybe toss in 5S003 just to have the trifecta
Owned since 1971, now driven over 245,000 miles, makes me smile every time I drive it and it makes me feel 21 again.😎

This car could be a huge draw for the MCACN show in Chicago.

I couldn't agree more.  7 figures plus for sure!

Hopefully, everyone saw that they are finalizing a documentary on the car and present ownership...makes my palms sweaty just thinking about that show - I can't wait!!!
Nothing beats a classic!

Easily into the 7 figures agreed and quite likely 8 figures.  When it comes up for sale.  Eventually it will. They all do if enough time trickles through the hour glass.

Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

As much as I'd love to see Sean hold onto it for much longer, I did read if the right offer comes along he may sell.

If it does go up for sale do you think it'll be a big auction house who sells it?

Some of the pics of the car are really great especially the one in the barn.
