...but I am Mustang Bullitt crazy! Having returned from the 2019 Bullitt Nationals held in Carlisle, PA, USA, in conjunction with the Ford Nationals at Carlisle, I can safely say I am in good company. Seventy vehicles of all 3 generations of feature cars, plus several 1968 Mustang fastback movie tributes, were parked on the show field on Saturday, June 1. At the evening cookout, I told many of the participants that a book on all 3 generations was coming in a year's time. I've got a lot of work to do, but I've got a lot of passion for the subject matter. Over the coming months, I'll be sharing the journey to get what I hope will be a reasonable accounting of the many stories and photos that demonstrate that passion. For now, even though I am not a writer by trade, I can guarantee you that I will give a high effort, and I look forward to you, dear reader, participating with your stories and photos! In the near future, I will welcome your contributions for possible inclusion in parts of the book that cover the enthusiast reaction to each generation of Bullitt Mustang. Those of you who own 1968 tribute cars to the original "Bullitt" movie vehicle are invited to share also. Regardless of your home country, and whether or not you might be a writer, you've got a passion that some understand and some don't. I want this book to reflect the history of the evolution of the 2001, 2008/09, and 2019/20 vehicles and the response that each evokes in us. Thank you for your interest and let's get writing!

We are proud owners of a new 19 Bullitt. We have owned several Mustangs through the years, a 1981, a 2005 GT(which we still), a 2015 Ecoboost special ordered from the factory and now this beautiful 2019 Bullitt. We do a lot of car shows and our first show with the Bullitt a few weeks ago had over 400 cars and about 150 Mustangs and our new Bullitt won “Best Mustang” trophy. It definitely draws attention. Good look in the writing of the book. We look forward to its release and we definitely would like to purchase it.
