I was asked to show the pictures I made at the Bullitt-filming-locations last year.

So I just translated what I wrote about each picture and uploaded it for you guys to check it out:

Please let me know what you think!

Anytime I look at old pics, I always check out the cars in the background. These pics were cool because you can compare how the modern and old cars looked. The old ones look like works of art and the modern ones seem so clean and utilitarian. Thanks for sharing the pics.

sometime this summer I'll have to take the charger out and recreate some shots around town. I'll bring lots of hubcaps.

I really appreciate the pictures.  Bullitt was one of my favorite movies.  When I first saw it and for several years I like the Mustang.  Now I like the Charger--------maybe because I have one.  I've been to SF but want to go back and trace the locations like you did.  I bet the people there kind of do a double take now when they see a black Charger cruising around.

Great pics!!! When viewing old/new photos it's amazing how much trees and other foliage effect the landscape.

Thanks for putting those shots together!  I remember sitting in a theater watching that movie with my new '68 R/T out in the parking lot.  When the movie let out some guys in a camaro tried to play like the mustang behind me.  Their mistake! lol lol  Bob

super cool!  2thumbs
love all those views now and back then, thanks for your efforts and sharing your pictures.

1 question, tho, you said something like

''This is where the chase starts. Back in 1968 there was a car wash which is gone today but that didn't help the area to become better.
I made sure not to stay too long.''

Why is that?
