Hey everyone,

I own bullitt #1444 and found that it didn't come with the retro speed/tach dash. It has the normal ford speedometer/tach. Does anyone else's Bullitt have this? Everything else about the car is flawless except for this. I asked the dealer about it, and he said that some of them came with the standard dashes. Any input????

Agreed!

If you hope to treat it as a collectible, you are gonna need the original (retro) dash.

That was part of the option purchase price BTW.

Don't let up on the dealer.

It amazes me about some of the obvious production mistakes that some Bullitts were assembled with! Wonder if any came through with the standard GT engine,or stock GT mufflers?? Document all this stuff,before you correct it. Man-oh-man!!

Check out this quote from COBRA_N_BULLITT on BON in the Bullitt Fourm:

They had to use double sided tape to make it look good, so no one would complain about **** poor fit and finish, as is commonplace with the mustang.
Dont get angry but almost every mustang has to be tweaked in one way or another because installed quality is so poor. As I have seen with my own eyes.
Example: back in april I saw a 2001 Cobra come off the final line, it had a GT rear fascia, V6 front fascia, Bullitt Gas filler door, 1 each v6 wheel (both styles), 1 GT wheel and 1 Cobra wheel. That was just cosmetic, now inside black leather rear seat bottom, tan leather back seat top, 1 cobra seat and 1 GT seat in different colors.
I asked why this came thru this way and it was because they were short on parts. In 1 hours time I saw 15 mustang mixes like the on above.
Leaves alot to be desired.

Mus408: I wonder if any of the Bullitts came with the stock Cobra engines by mistake! :smile: I believe reading awhile ago that someone here had a regular exhaust tip and one Bullitt exhaust tip.

Yeah I just bought a Bullit a few days ago # 5467 True Blue ! it is a Hella-Sweet car but I did see another Bullitt (true blue also) with the GT SIDE SCOOPS !!!And of course NO ONE at the dealership knew why ?! go figure, one of the sales guys told me a story about a test drive he did on a Taurus with cloth seats up-front and leather rear seats!!
