Default The 'Lost' Bullitt Mustang Might Have Been Discovered In Mexico

While only one 1968 Ford Mustang fastback appears to star in the famous chase scene from the Steve McQueen flick Bullitt, two cars alternated duties on camera. One car took a heavier beating than the other and its whereabouts have been a mystery since, but a forum user says it recently wound up in a shop in Mexico.

Interesting news about VIN #558!!

Can someone verify the color, DSO, Eng serial # etc with the current ID plate found in Mexico? The ID plate appears legit but would luv to see a close-up pic of it.

p.s A follow-up on this intriguing news concerns the finding on a '68 MTG 390 Vin #558 as one of two Mtgs used in the WB set. This BTW is MTg #1 as the other real McCoy (Vin # 559) is somewhere in the Midwest as of 2010.Poss (TN area). The pics of the US sample exist & few folks know about 'em. I hope to see more/info a data as well as pics in future Mtg magazines of the '68 MTG find in Mexicaly, Mexico c. March 2017. Tks in advance.

To Fed Garza:

What an incredible find!! Plz post the trunk generator picture when you get a chance. Any other angles of this vehicle as found??

p.s Included this time is a c.2014 pic that appeared in this forum showing a poss '68 Mustang Bullitt on a trailer, perhaps ready to crosss the Border. It looks incredible close to the one found near Cabo San Lucas also. Any chance to re-track the poss 2 Mex Owners when the car was white & red colors?? Can that Vin #558 be traced in Mexico to the previous owners?? Tks in advance
