This original S-code 1968 Mustang GT has been transformed into an exceptional Bullitt Tribute that captures the look, sound, and performance of one of the most iconic movie cars ever built. Starting life as a genuine factory 390 GT, this Mustang now features a professionally rebuilt 428 Cobra Jet and a four speed manual transmission, creating the perfect blend of originality and legendary Ford performance. Finished in the unmistakable Highland Green, this tribute is beautifully executed and will impress even the most discerning Mustang enthusiast.
Under the hood sits the rebuilt 428 Cobra Jet V8, one of Ford’s most legendary big block engines. Known for its tremendous torque and effortless acceleration, the 428 CJ transformed Mustangs into some of the fastest muscle cars of the era. New ceramic coated long tube headers give this car an unmistakable exhaust note, while a new clutch and flywheel ensure smooth engagement and excellent performance. The engine compartment is exceptionally clean and well detailed, presenting as beautifully as the rest of the car. Power steering and power brakes make this Mustang surprisingly comfortable and enjoyable to drive whether cruising through town or stretching its powerful legs on the open road.
The interior captures the spirit of the Bullitt Mustang perfectly. Finished in classic black, it presents in outstanding condition with excellent attention to detail throughout. A modern audio system has been tastefully integrated, adding today’s convenience without distracting from the car’s authentic appearance. Comfortable seating and an excellent driving position remind you why the 1968 Mustang remains one of the most celebrated American performance cars ever built.
The body and paint are outstanding. The Highland Green finish is deep and beautifully applied, highlighting every line of this fastback while paying tribute to the famous movie car. Panel fit, trim, and overall presentation are first class, with no notable flaws or blemishes.
Underneath, this Mustang is every bit as impressive. A Maier Racing chassis stiffening kit significantly improves structural rigidity and handling, while upgraded four wheel disc brakes provide the stopping power needed to match the performance of the 428 Cobra Jet. The result is a Mustang that not only looks the part but drives with confidence far beyond what was possible in 1968.
If you’ve been searching for a 1968 Mustang that combines the pedigree of an original S-code GT with the legendary style of the Bullitt Mustang and the brute strength of a 428 Cobra Jet, this is a car that deserves your attention. Beautifully built, exceptionally well finished, and ready to enjoy, this is a tribute that is as exciting to drive as it is to admire.
