    I brainstormed the idea of a Bullitt Maverick while considering a "Bullitt II" makeover on my Mustang II fastback

    Just the Bullitt color on a Maverick would make it pretty unique, but with a set of classic Torque-Thrusts , I think "car folk" would get it

    if you thinking of the modern bullet mustang then really only the color and wheels would be all that would apply. the bullet was striped of all the gt stuff and given more power. it was a perfomance package more than an apearance package. the mustang used in the movie bullet was a standard bigblock fastback 68 mustang. i just cant see much of a bullet theam being applyed to the mav.

    This could give you an idea of what one might look like.

    No, doing a Bullitt themed Maverick based on a modern Bullitt edition Mustang would just be a theme car of a theme car

    But I bet with the color and the wheels like the original movie car, you might be suprised how many people would recognize the theme and make the connection.

    A plain grille would be cool.... no sport lamps, no emblems.
