CAR NAME–YEAR & MODEL INFO way on May 10, 2012 at the age of 89, from what the death certificate listed as pneumonia, but it is well known he had a heart condition as well, which had affected him for years. Now for all you yoots who don’t know, Carroll help created some of our most iconic cars namely the Shelby Cobra 427 that whooped Ferrari’s ass in Europe and of course my ghoulishly favorite the Dodge Viper. His family held a private small ceremony for his takeoff on to heaven’s racetrack. He was buried at Leesburg Cemetery in Leesburg, Texas. head of yours. He died on November 7, 1980 in Chihuahua, Mexico, at the yootful age of 50, a few days after surgery to remove tumors from his lungs. He had been diagnosed with terminal mesothelioma lung cancer in 1979, possible brought on by asbestos exposure from his asbestos crash suit he would wear while filming his own stunts on various movies. His ashes were scattered at sea in the Pacific Ocean. Ghoul Fact, his last words were “Lo Hice” or “I did it” in Spanish. So next time you are near the Pacific Ocean, stop and pay your respects to Mr. Bullitt, himself.

MEMBERS OF THE STANG MAG FAMILY ARE MORE PASSIONATE ABOUT FUN AND INCLUSION THAN THEY ARE THEIR CARS AND THAT SAYS A LOT!

And finally, my personal favorite, Mr. Bullitt himself, Steve McQueen. Now I don’t need to introduce him, if you don’t know Bullitt, then honestly, you’re a brain-dead ghoul and let the pheasants feast on what is inside of that hollow

Well, it’s been real, but like all things alive, it’s time to depart into the afterworld. While I cape up, don’t forget to remember all those of yesteryears who paved the current path for you today. Hope to see all you yoots soon!

I met Daniel Ramey at a Beltway Mustang show and won my spot with STANG Magazine in their Carlisle Ford Nationals display. Needless to say I wasn’t sure what to expect being that I didn’t know the people attending and was going by myself.

The STANG Mag family welcomed me in from the very start and made me feel like one of their own!
