The Bullett Healey is a BJ7 and is currently undergoing a rebuild in my garage.
The guy I bought it from in San Jose said the owner lived in the apartment
complex where they were shooting at the time and they told him he could leave
it where it was parked because it looked good in the scenes......so that's the
story I got. The prior owner said he got a VHS tape (this was about 8 years
ago) of the movie and stop frame stepped it through one scene where the Healey
can be seen through the rear window of Steve McQueen's Mustang, in that picture
he said he could see the top half of the license plate and verified the plate
number was the same as the black and gold CA plate on the car.....I have the
black and gold CA plate. Interesting story.....anyway, I doubt that this adds
more than 25 cents to the value.
