INTRODUCTION: The Bullitt Mustang has become one of the most iconic
muscle cars of all time. Thanks to Steve McQueen and the legendary
movie chase scene, its understated Highland Green paint, aggressive
stance, and no-nonsense attitude have made it one of the most
recognizable Mustangs ever. This '67 Fastback captures that spirit
perfectly, benefiting from a ground-up restoration. The result is a
car with timeless style and the unmistakable presence that has made
the Bullitt legend endure for generations.
EXTERIOR: It is exceptionally straight, with precise panel fit and
no signs of rust or damage. It was originally a factory green car
and has been refinished in Highland Green Metallic, the iconic
Bullitt color. The paint is evenly applied and polished to a deep,
glossy finish that looks fantastic. The chrome and trim appear to
have been replaced, including the window moldings, giving the car a
fresh, crisp appearance. It features dual outside mirrors, the
correct antenna. The weatherstrips and windshield were also
replaced. The signature Bullitt style black grille, and a blacked
out tail panel complete the look along with the 15-inch American
Racing Torq Thrust wheels wrapped in performance tires for the
perfect stance.
INTERIOR: It has been restored to a very clean, factory correct
appearance. The seats have been recushioned and reupholstered, and
it features the highly desirable optional fold down rear seat. In
the back, all of the interior plastic trim is in excellent
condition. The door panels, headliner, sun visors, dash pad, and
carpet have all been replaced, giving the cabin a fresh, like new
feel. Even the interior lights are working properly. The instrument
panel has been restored and includes the factory tachometer.
Completing the driver's view is a deluxe Shelby style steering
wheel, and one of the highlights is the factory four-speed shifter
rising from the floor. For modern convenience, it also features a
Bluetooth stereo, with a pair of box speakers set on the rear
deck.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It is just as impressive as the rest of the
car- clean, fresh, detailed, and presented with a factory correct
appearance. The engine bay features smooth, solid metal finished in
semi-gloss black, complete with fresh decals, hardware, and
attention to detail throughout. Power comes from a 289 A-code V8
that's been upgraded with an aluminum intake manifold, a Holley
four-barrel carburetor, and a slightly hotter camshaft for improved
performance. It's dressed with Cobra finned valve covers and an
open element air cleaner, giving it a tasteful performance look.
All of the engine components are clean and well detailed, including
the distributor, power steering system, power brakes, brackets, and
pulleys. The radiator is in excellent condition with the proper fan
shroud, reproduction hoses, and correct style clamps. The battery
is properly secured and topped with an Autolite battery cover for
an authentic appearance. Even the horns and windshield washer
squirters are hooked up. It's the kind of engine compartment that's
a pleasure to show off whenever the hood is raised.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The trunk is just as tidy as the rest of the
car. Under the trunk lid, in the jamb, and inside everything is
nicely painted and finished. You'll find a fresh reproduction trunk
mat covering a clean, solid trunk floor. It also includes a clean
spare tire and wheel, giving the compartment a neat appearance.
UNDERSIDE: It has a clean, factory correct appearance. The floors,
frame rails, and rockers are all solid, clean metal finished in the
proper red oxide primer, just as they would have appeared from the
factory. The steering and suspension have been rebuilt, along with
the brake system, which features front disc brakes, rear drums, and
a functioning emergency brake. The fuel system has been replaced,
including the fuel tank. It has the correct GT dual exhaust with
the factory crossover pipe and splitter tips exiting through the
rear valance. Looking up at the drivetrain, everything is clean and
proper, including the correct four-speed transmission. Out back is
the original rear axle equipped with desirable 3.00 Positraction
gears.

vehicle goes through our service department where it is inspected,

CONCLUSION: This Mustang has the desirable A-code 289, a factory
four-speed, the iconic Fastback body, and the timeless Bullitt
styling. Add in the exceptional restoration, and you've got a car
that's ready to enjoy from day one. If you've been waiting for the
right '67 Fastback, stop looking- this is the one you should
buy!
