I started this web page as a place to save some pictures I had been collecting of a concept car with unique Bullitt badges. Unlike some other concept cars this one was put into production and my collection of pictures has kept growing. I was not looking for a Mustang but this car struck a note with me. I like old movies and when I was 12 my brother-in-law had a blue 289 stick shift, 1968 Fastback with black interior. I spent a lot of time with my sister and brother-in-law and we went all over London in this awesome sounding car. It got to 120 mph but it rattled like mad and it sounded like the doors were going to fall off. It was well past it's 'sell by date' but rust free and solid and the sound of this car and experience, stuck with me and ingrained something in my young mind.

I feel the 2001 Bullitt Mustang, was made to pay homage to the era and the classic 1968 movie called Bullitt, in which Steve McQueen played the title role of Lt. Frank Bullitt a tough detective in San Francisco. His personal car in the movie, was a 1968 Fastback Mustang. This movie was famous for a iconic high speed car chase with his Fastback Mustang and Black Charger. Because his personal car in the movie, was a green 1968 fastback Mustang, this has become distorted over time to be called the Mustang in Bullitt to, The "Bullitt" Mustang, or the original Bullitt Mustang.

The 2001 Bullitt Mustang GT, is not a fastback or a 60's car but it pays homage or a tribute to the movie and the era, so it was right to be offered in other colours, other than green because it is NOT a copy of a car it can never be. In fact the 2001 Bullitt Mustang is the original Bullitt Mustang, as it was the first car to be licensed through Ford and Warner Brothers to bear the name and badge, "Bullitt."

This simple web page is just for fun and to let visitors see pictures of this limited edition car. There is also information on the 2001 Ford Mustang Bullitt GT, which was only available only in 2001. The total production run of this understated and beautiful car was just 5582 units which broke down as, 3041 in Green, 1818 in Black and 723 in True Blue. The green was unique to the Bullitt and not available on any other Mustang. True blue was also a new colour for 2001 but the blue was available on other Mustangs as well. The black was available on the Bullitt and the other Mustangs.

I hope to compliment other sites that provide information about the 2001 Bullitt Mustangs. I also have some pictures of other interesting Mustangs but this is a place for Bullitt Mustangs. If you have a Bullitt then send me some info and pictures and I will do my best to include them.

Have a look at my site and I hope you find something to enjoy and between us we will help preserve the legend of the Mustang and the very special limited edition 2001 BULLITT Mustang GT.
