This tuned coupe is notable for being featured in the famous 1983 movie Le Marginal, starring Jean-Paul Belmondo. In the story, the famous actor plays a successful police officer who often resorts to harsh and illegal methods in the fight against crime.
Among other things, the film was remembered for its spectacular chase: the hero Belmondo in the Ford Mustang goes after the killers of the drug mafia. The scene became a reference to the famous chase in the cult movie “Bullitt” with Steve McQueen.
For the shoot, they created two of these Ford Mustangs with the 4.7-liter 271-horsepower V8. They’ve been lowered, optics replaced, fenders widened and massive tires fitted. They painted cars green, like Steve McQueen’s cars.
The stunts were staged by famous stunt driver Remy Julien. The movie was talking about the car being armored, but there was actually no protection and a car was smashed.
The second copy was bought by one of the members of the film crew, but later the Mustang ended up in a dump. Found and restored to its original state.
