I just wanted to let everyone know that I've mailed our request to at least 4 or 5 model makers as of now. We'll soon see how successful we are when we recieve their replies. This is the letter that I sent to Maisto:

Dear B Simons,
For the year 2001, the Ford Motor Company has produced a unique and well received version of the Mustang known as the Bullitt GT. The vehicle has garnered a great deal of press exposure in the automobile world.
Approximately 5600 of these vehicles were produced and sold this year to a very enthusiastic group of owners. The principle way in which these owners communicates is via a web site known as Bullittclub.com.
I wanted to gauge the demand for a diecast Bullitt model among our members and the following link shows that there is clearly a high interest among the vehicle owners. This topic has received a very high volume of posts and I'd like to know if you'd consider visiting the following link to see for yourself:

This does not take into consideration the interests of non-Bullitt owners. That may add significantly to the true market demand.
In any event, we wonder if Maisto would consider tooling up to produce a model of this unique and highly sought after vehicle. It seems that your standard Mustang model could be adapted very easily with minor modification, and you could really make thousands of enthusiasts happy.
The Bullitt GT was manufactured in three colors: Dark Highland Green, True Blue, and Black. Surveys and production records indicate that Dark Highland Green is the color of choice, if you chose not to manufacture all three. The Dark Green color is the original color of the classic Bullitt
Mustang from 1968.
Would you please consider producing a 2001 Bullitt Mustang diecast model? Maisto has done a fine job of representing the Mustang model line and we'd be proud to display another of your excellent products. If some other arrangement might be necessary to move it into production, we'd be pleased to assist your efforts.
Thank you in advance for your time and thoughts in our behalf.
Sincerely,
Dr. Robert Garfield
Mustang Bullitt owner.
Let's hope we score with this one!
