Steve McQueen in Bullitt



Steve McQueen in Bullitt
Haulin' on The Streets of San Francisco

This is a fascinating photo of Steve McQueen hauling-ass through the San Francisco Marina in his Ford 1968 Mustang fastback from the movie Bullitt. He is on Marina Boulevard heading North toward the Golden Gate Bridge, and he just passed Fort Mason and Safeway.

I tried to find the exact vantage point, from the photo above. It is interesting to note that the Bank of America building (pictured on far right) was being erected in 1967-1968 and you can see its skeleton in the photo above, and see it as it is today in the picture below.
