Since it was revealed by owner Sean Kiernan in early 2018, still in its original paint after decades in the ownership of Sean's parents, the Mustang has starred in the USA and the UK. It started out at the 2018 North American International Auto Show, went to the Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance in Florida, ran up the hillclimb at the UK's Goodwood Festival of Speed alongside the Bullitt movie Dodge Charger, took part in the San Francisco launch of the new Bullitt edition Mustang and became the 21st vehicle inducted into the Historic Vehicle Association’s (HVA) National Historic Vehicle Register. The HVA induction resulted in the Mustang being displayed in a glass display case on National Mall, Washington DC.

Now it's on display at America's Car Museum, where Sean Kiernan will hold a screening of Bullitt and a Q&A session with Sean Kiernan in January (date to be confirmed on theAmerica's Car Museum website ). “It’s not every day that we get the chance to showcase a vehicle that has made such a lasting impact on the way cars are presented on film," says David Madeira, vice chair of the museum's trust. "It’s humbling to share the long and storied history of this Mustang with ACM guests. The story of this vehicle is as unique as the car itself. We’d like to thank Sean and the HVA for giving us the opportunity to celebrate the history of one of film’s most influential cars."
