Steve McQueen Sub inscription

Wall Street Journal today has an article about the stunt man who drove most of the famous route during the chase in Bullitt. He's 79 now and in the end was offered a Mustang from the movie. He passed and said "Besides, I already had this," removing a 1964 Submariner from his wrist. On the back was the inscription: "To the best damn stuntman in the world. Steve."

AWESOME

How funny; that ad was placed by a buyer's agent, not the listing realtor..

That means it's just some guy trolling for a deal!
