The '19 Bullitt was out in full force over the weekend. As mentioned in this thread from Jarstang, there were a number of activities planned celebrating the 50th anniversary of Bullitt. Here are some of my photos from Saturday (Mustang Alley and the Bullitt Mustang parade) and Sunday (Mustang Memories car show). It was a fantastic weekend, topped off by seeing the "hero car" from the movie.

The photo, however, captures the spirit of the weekend (taken on Sunday). This was the '68 hero car with all 3 versions of Bullitt Mustangs, with the '19 prominently out front.

Ford arranged a Bullit Mustang cruise down Woodward Avenue, with the destination being Mustang Alley in Ferndale, MI on Saturday. Tom Barnes, the Mustang Engineering Manager, brought a black '19 (chassis number MP028). Sean Kiernan, along with his wife Samantha, led the parade in a DHG '19.

These were from the start point in Berkely and the final staging point in Ferndale before going into the parking area of Mustang Alley.

Inside Mustang Alley, this was the car on display near the corner of 9 Mile and Woodward Avenue, which is a prominent area for foot traffic

This is the Kona Blue JDRF car (chassis number K0005)...a beautiful homage to the 2001 True Blue Bullitt Mustangs

This is the black "Cruise for a Cause" car with handy trailer hitch for moving the display around to different shows. This car was at the Bullitt 50th Anniversary celebration in Carlisle, PA, back in June.

On Sunday in Dearborn at the Ford World Headquarters, forum member DABKO was the lone representative of owner '19 Bullitts in the Bullitt parking area. All of the other vehicles were displays (although some of them, I think, were privately owned). The JDRF Kona Blue Bullitt was on display near a DHG, both not too far away from the movie car. Carl Widmann, the Mustang Chief Engineer, did bring his '19 Bullitt for a short period of time.

As DABKO posted in another thread, the historic (to me) moment was when the '68 hero car was parked in front of Ford World Headquaters with all editions of Bullitt Mustangs. I have to admit I just took it in and tried to take a few photos, but mainly I just soaked in being with all these cars having come home.

So I really like the window louvers on the blue bullitt. Are those aftermarket pieces? Does anyone know who produced and selling them?
