First Australian RHD Bullitt Landed

[Soton]

Locally built Ford Falcon, which are now are thing of the past since we don't build any cars in AU any more....

Haha, no I know what that is. There's an electrical cable plugged into it and what I assume is a CB antenna? Is it a flag to find you if you misjudge the meter stick on a dry, now wet, riverbed?

Ignore the earlier post of 10 mins ago
I've now tracked down the full vin and window sticker and the blend date was 27 June, a day earlier than mine so I must be getting a nice low unique serial number too. In fact a lot of the early production seems to be export bullitts to OZ & NZ.so we may all have comparatively low serial numbers
Probably why the yanks allegedly have had delays with white shift knobs and magneride suspensions.
Many thks

No worries, I cant see that number or blend date anywhere. The only numbers which look like a date were this number at the very bottom of the window sticker that looks like 19 June?

Where do you find the window stickers?

LOL oops. Of course. Yeah looks like two antennas mounted side by side. One would be for UHF CB (the big one) the second could be VHF or even a cellular booster antenna.....(its not my car I just googled it)

The full vin number for that Bullitt is 1FA6P8V00K5104867 if you want to look it up and print out the full window sticker

I can zoom in closer to the window sticker picture I took, but I'm not sure where to look - where do I find the blend date?

Looks like June 1

These are the Recaros..hard to tell with all the plastic still on them!

Yes, you can tell by the side bolster in the first pic.

I am very disappointed to see that this Bullitt doesn't have the cross brace - or the centre gauges like the ones in the USA.

I'm very sad to see a RHD Bullitt

Here is the spec list for the Australian Bullitts from Ford Australia showing what's included....above pics look great & finally becoming a reality!!!

See, that brochure says power folding mirrors.

So what is it, power folding or manual folding?

Yeah but this is due to all exports having to meet road legal & safety restrictions in a variety of countries....not just the US. Eg: the strut brace is a passenger collision concern in some countries, including Australia.....agreed tho, definitely disappointing.
