2008 Ford Mustang Bullitt on 2040-cars
Tempe, Arizona, United States
Feel free to ask me any questions about the car : eddyehhampon@topaddress.com .
There were 5773 Bullitts produced in 2008, 4377 were done in Dark Highland Green
7500 VERY CAREFUL miles - most of which were added by a 59-yr old driver (me) who got his hot-rodding done with the
last Corvette he owned and bought this as a work of art - not a daily driver. My Dad took me to see Bullitt when I
was a youngster, and I never forgot it. When I saw the introduction of this tribute car, I had to have it. No
scoops, no spoilers, no stripes - oh my! Very subtly understated, just like the king of cool himself.
The car was so perfect when I got it, I just had to keep it that way.
Early build number: 0545
Rare options: The car was custom-ordered with Navigation system, Ambient Lighting, and Hands-Free Phone - the Ford
Mobil-Ease Bluetooth system - installed at the factory These options alone added another $2980 on top of the $3310
Bullitt Package in the sticker-price. I have not seen another Bullitt with all three of these options.
Always garaged and covered
Never seen any bad weather
Every single engine startup/trip is logged along with trip miles and significant events (oil changes, etc.) in a
spreadsheet I will provide with the car. Every single mile is documented since I have owned it.
Still has the clear plastic peel-off protectors on the doorsills
Still has new car smell
The entire interior is perfect - no sign of wear anywhere
Leather Steering Wheel has NO shiny spots on it - just like new
No BURNOUTS, no REDLINING, no POTHOLES, no CURBS - if I ever found myself behind a cement mixer or garbage truck, I
took immediate evasive maneuvers to avoid
Car was never driven over 2,000 RPM until thoroughly warmed up
A/C was always cut-off several blocks from home to let the condenser cool down and the freon/oil settle prior to
shutdown
I know, I was a little bit crazy about this car
Driven just enough to keep all systems in good condition and all seals lubricated, etc. Every trip was a blast and
still felt as if I was just driving off the showroom floor.
Extras and Goodies that will be included with the car:
Framed and Signed Bullitt Movie Poster - 40" x 28" with five signatures from actors that were in the movie
including Steve himself - with Certificate of Authenticity
The other signatures are from:
Jacqueline Bissett
Robert Duvall
Robert Vaughan
Simon Oakland
High-Quality Model of 1968 Bullitt Mustang in display case
High-Quality Model of 2008 Bullitt in wood/glass display case
Nice model of 1968 Black Charger in display case
Framed Original 2008 Dealer poster - 40" x 32" - the original buyer insisted on taking this from the Dealer's
showroom wall before he would complete the purchase.
Ford new car brochures and postcard Bullitt advertisements
Repro metal California License Plates - Black/Yellow - from both the Mustang (JJZ 109) and the Charger (RDR 838)
ALL Documentation included - every little piece of paper since new including little cards hanging from interior of
car, etc.
Several Car Magazines from 2007/2008 announcing the coming and arrival of the Bullitt
Framed Certificate from Ford Performance verifying VIN and build number as a genuine Bullitt
Framed original window sticker
Two framed Steve McQueen Bullitt Movie Posters
Bullitt T-Shirt - too small for me anyway
Additional Info:
Oil Changes with 100% synthetic performed at least annually - regardless of mileage
Fuel additive used to prevent any varnishing of fuel components - Archoil
Battery Tender Jr. bolted directly to battery terminals is included - still has original battery in perfect
condition
Navigation Update performed in 2015 - latest Ford Disc was purchased and installed
Still has some of the little rubber casting spikes on the tire sidewalls
RPM-Matched every shift - up or down
Paint finish is like glass with no imperfections. Only mark on the car is on the rear bumper when I was pushing the
car back and bumped into the garage door and one of the hinge bolts pressed into the paint a little bit (see last
two pictures.)
Never taken to a car-wash - always hand-cleaned/polished/waxed - no swirls, etc.
If you are looking for a pristine example of the breed, look no further - this is IT
No disappointments
Car has had 3 owners - the original buyer was a huge Bullitt enthusiast who paid a large premium for one of the
earliest cars, and was insistent on keeping the car perfect. Fortunately, he was also very meticulous about keeping
EVERYTHING to do with the car, even sale paperwork, registration documents, recall maintenance, service history,
etc. The second owner was just as fastidious, and drove the car primarily to car shows and never used it as a
driver. I bought the car from him with 2950 miles on it, and it was everything he said it was. Since then, it has
not grown any older if I could help it.
I have been more of a caretaker for it than a driver and now it is time to pass that responsibility on to someone
else.
That privilege and responsibility will cost you $25,000 and well worth it

eBay Find of the Day: 1987 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe is showroom fresh
Tue, 27 Aug 2013There's an ultra-rare Ford Thunderbird for sale on eBay, although it's not quite the T-Bird you're probably thinking. This is a 1987 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe, complete with a five-speed manual transmission and just a shade over 13,000 miles on the clock. The condition is said to be mint, and judging by the interior and exterior pictures, we're inclined to believe the seller. The paint is glossy and the interior looks showroom new, while the underbody is stunningly clean for a 36-year-old car.
Underhood sits a 2.3-liter, intercooled and turbocharged four-cylinder (also found in the Mustang SVO) that was producing 190 horsepower when it left the factory. Inside, the five-speed manual transmission adds to the car's rarity. The vehicle's sole owner has been as immaculate with the paperwork as he has with the rest of the car - it's all there, including brochures and other product material.
The eBay auction ends tomorrow at midnight (9:00 PM if you're on America's west coast). Bidding has reached $10,200, and there's still plenty of time to get in on this future classic. The vehicle is located in Millstone Township, NJ.
Ford forced to recall Escape over fire risk yet again
Tue, 26 Nov 2013Recalls happen. Automakers hope they won't, but they do. And that's alright, for the most part, because cars are designed (and to a large degree still made) by humans, and humans make mistakes. So we forgive them, as long as the problem is resolved. Only in the case of the Ford Escape, the problem seems to keep coming back.
That's why Ford is calling in the Escape yet again due to fire concerns. The issue revolves around problematic fuel lines in 9,469 units manufactured between October 5, 2011, and July 11, 2012, all of which use the 1.6-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder engine.
As you yourself may recall, the Escape was subject to a string of recalls last year that resulted in a $17 million fine. One of them was over this very same issue, which Ford apparently didn't rectify the first time around. Let's hope this time is the last time.
More evidence GT500-replacement will be named GT350
Tue, 17 Dec 2013During the recent unveiling of the 2015 Ford Mustang, we saw the car in both V6 and GT form, but we'll have to wait a little bit longer to see the successor to the Shelby GT500. In the meantime, though, it looks like SVTPerformance.com has confirmed reports that this high-performance model will bring the Shelby GT350 name back to Ford.
According to the forum post, a user found the Shelby GT350 name on a Ford promo website listing its 2015 lineup. The Shelby GT350 name was first used on a Mustang back in 1965, and most recently it has been a model created for customers as a post-title purchase by Shelby American. As for that car, Shelby confirmed earlier in the year that its GT350 would be phased out at the end of this month.
The million-dollar question for Mustang and Shelby enthusiasts is when we'll see next factory Shelby GT350. Last we heard it was planned for a debut at the New York Auto Show. We've included our previous spy shots of this hi-po, sixth-gen Mustang, and we've also captured it on spy video showing off its exhaust note.
