Steve Mcqueen's Secret Weapon In 1968 " BULLITT " ( 1:43 Yat Ming )

I do like classic sport car 'But'.....only in certain type.Ford Mustang GT is always my favourite American sport car due to the fact that it's represents the true & pure of high performance muscle car herittage in this free land.
  • The legendary Steve Mcqueen just blend perfectly with this "Iron Horse" and blast the streets of San Francisco in a unique style.
  • Typical chrome finish can be found in the front & rear bumper , side mirror , front grille , door handle , window panel , front head & tail lights edging. 
  • This 2 doors sport coupe has no head rest either the driver or passenger seat and comes with brown colour leather , large steering wheel , long  gear knob , twin tail pipe and not very comfortable suspension system in those days.
When you hear the roaring V8 approaching and you know Steve is never far away.

Technical Spec :
Engine            : front engine , 5 Litre V8
Transmission  : 4 speed manual , rear wheel drive
Horse Power  : 230bhp
Max.Torque   : 420Nm
Kerb Weight  : 1251kg



Thanks ,

Hi Manuel ,

Did you post it before ? Please do show to all of us.
The Dodge Charger in the "BULLITT" is certainly another American ICON.

Cheers :)

yes, a nice mustang you have it here.
further more it's green in color and has a nice details too.
the black wheels with chrome rims are really well blend in this muscle car.

love it!

Hi Daniel ,

This 1:43 porpotion is not very accurate but AUTOart 1:18 is more precise.
If they could make the car lower and the tyre smaller would be better.
Yat Ming's diecast detailing still have a lot of space for improvement.
Since i'm not collecting 1:18 anymore therefore just focus on smaller scale.
Is more cheaper & can collect more & save space as well.

Thanks ,

Cheers :)

Great photography you got there. Yat Ming made a good job on that Mustang model.

Hi Resti ,

Yup!!! It is a good piece of work from Yat Ming but there is still a lot of room for improvement.
But it's worth the price for such quality.

Thankyou so much & see you again.

Cheers :)
