Ford will put Steve McQueen back in a starring role next month when a digitally reproduced image of the late actor appears in a national TV spot for the 2005 Mustang. In the spot, via WPP’s J. Walter Thompson in Detroit, a farmer builds a winding racetrack, which he drives around in a 2005 Mustang.
