I always want to watch Bullitt. Not the whole movie of course, just the good part...

Nobody even mentioned the truly terrifying part of the story:

Sanchez brought it to a Mexicali custom car shop owned by his friend, Ralph Garcia, Jr., to have it turned into a clone of the similarly-famous “Eleanor” Mustang from the film “Gone in 60 Seconds,”

Are you fucking kidding me?

I know they wouldn't have knowingly done that. I just meant it would have been tragic beyond belief. I'd almost prefer if that car was demolished than live the rest of its life as another Eleanor clone.
