America’s love and fascination of the Ford Mustang, goes back to when the first one rolled off the assembly line in 1964.  They were cool. Like Steve McQueen. Like The Beatles.

Complex put together a list of The 25 Best Movie Mustangs. It’s a compeling list, but not suprising, is that the 1968 GT390 Fastback that Steve McQueen drove in ‘Bullitt’ took the top spot-

Get out to The Ranch, and take a look at all these great cars; and get to know their owners- because these are the people that are living the dream!
