That's a 10 year old spot, and I don't think they used photoshop to produce it:)

"Bullit" was one of his best movies; green '69 fastback, 390 with a 4 speed.

He did all the stunt shots and was proud of it....

I remember that commercial. I went out and asked my papa to rent Bullitt and other McQueen movies for the weekend after i'd seen it.

Memories, memories. The Thomas Crown Affair, The Cincinnati Kid, and The Great Escape, Sand Pebbles, Le Mans, Tom Horn, The Hunter and Bullitt, Nevada Smith are my all time favorites.
