THE HISTORY

Why this car became a legend

Steve McQueen’s Highland Green 1968 Mustang GT Fastback became a screen icon in the film Bullitt.

The legendary chase through San Francisco helped define the movie-car genre. The car used Ford’s 390-cubic-inch V8. Ford later released Bullitt editions paying tribute to the original film.
