Jonn : Do you know what year Mr. McQueen's Bullitt was at the car show?

@QueenB : I remember reading that it had sold recently for a ton of money. I found this small article. Sold with existing dents, poor paint, and rust for $3,740,000.00.
 
The 1968 Ford Mustang GT driven by Steve McQueen in the 1968 film "Bullitt" just auctioned off for $3.74 million, making it the most valuable Ford Mustang in the world, according to the auction house that sold the car, Mecum Auctions.
 
The Mustang auctioned off on January 10 at the Oceola Heritage Park arena, which was filled to its capacity during the auction as crowds packed in to catch a glimpse and take a photo of the iconic Mustang.
 
The vehicle was put up for auction by then-owner, Sean Kiernan, who also spoke before the fast-paced event began. Kiernan's late father, Robert, was the third person to have ever owned the car, which has been sold twice in its lifespan, both times for $3,500, according to Kiernan.
 
After its role in "Bullitt", the Mustang was sold to Robert Ross, a Warner Bros employee, who used it as a commuter car before selling it to Det. Frank Marranca. Marranca then sold the Mustang to Robert Kiernan

@mellen : I heard also that McQueen had reached out to Kiernan and asked to buy it back, but he said nope! Good move it looks like! I am actually wondering who owns the Bullitt from the Kingwood car show last weekend, if anyone knows the owner?

I saw the Superman dude driving up Kingwood drive that afternoon and couldn't help but raise my tiny pinky in the air for him 🤣. Wonder what he thinks about the latest Superman announcement. Maybe he knew something all along.
