Iconic Movie Cars 01


'Bullitt' - 1968 Ford Mustang GT 390

The 1968 action movie "Bullitt" starred Steve McQueen as a San Francisco cop. Its most famous sequence was a 10-minute car chase jam-packed with shots of his 1968 Ford Mustang GT 390 negotiating the city's treacherous hills at high speed, becoming airborne several times.

One of the things best remembered about the chase is the car itself. It has remained so enduring that the Ford Motor Company produced a limited edition GT with the "Bullitt" nameplate in 2001, and again in 2008.
