  • LeeC Parts Salvage Stories | When I saw this DESTROYED '20 Ford Mustang GT Bullitt for sale at Copart Salvage Auction, I knew I had to have it!
    With some rare parts you can't find on the typical Mustang GT, I'm thinking we may be able to make some money on it even though the car has obviously seen better days!
    Have a cool Ford story of your own? Share it in the comments!
    Hopefully we get a good opportunity to pick up some of the other special edition Mustangs in the near future (Mach 1, GT350R, GT500, Etc.) so we can see which is king, well, at least as far as parts value is concerned...

      It’s okay if the Bullitt badge ends up on a regular GT, as long as you get paid. Once you sell something to someone it’s theirs to do whatever they want.

    I do like the modern Bullitt Mustangs! I have had a 07 Parnelli Jones Mustang for many years now. And I am not willing to part with it. So I will have to keep on saving to get one. Back in the late 70's a friend of mine got in a fight with his wife then got drunk and put his 69 RS Z28 that was perfect through a wood farm fence and made it look a lot like this Bullett Mustang! The damage was very similar. Strangely enough that RS Z was a similar green to the Bullitt!

      Good old fashion last 4 digits of the vin, frankly the barcode systems, car-part etc are a waste of time unless you absolutely HAVE to because you're dealing with 500k items. I've entertained it prior and the time commitment to use it effectively doesn't make sense for a business of our size.
