Looking back at this now in my late 50s..its zmazing how much a different paint job,a set of cutom wheels and tyres transformed a very ordinary boring looking 2 door car into any 14yrs dream car at the time...pity engine sounds were fake....i loved the car at first at 14 yrs of age but out grew it by 18yrs... but nostalia and the ability to make the car perform ax you really wanted to do it great to look at this project with a smile

Amazing project restoration from the ground up of a TV series icon. I've always loved the looks of Starsky"s car. That would be a keeper and remind people of yesterday's famous tv show when you drive the car around. The closest I could get to owning Starsky"s Gran Turino is at my local Hobby Lobby store where they sell a Starsky and Hutch car display kit lol. Thanks for sharing the details of transforming a Gran Turino into an iconic tv series car, good job well done and worth it..👍👍..

Yeah, these cars are pretty thin on the ground here in the UK, but back in 2010 I saw one of these Starsky Torino's at a classic car show. Wow, it looked better in the metal than it did on screen.Our cars from that era looked dreadful in comparison. At least you Aussie's had the Ford Falconwhich was kind of based on an early 70's Mustang.right? All we got was the Capri or Crappie lol.

Have a black Lincoln Town Car chase you in circles to recreate the opening scene, only slowly. There were some great chases. My 2 favorite were the one where they chase the guys pretending to be them in a like Starsky's, and the one where the green Ford Maverick follows them, then taken from Steve McQueen in Bullet, the hunters become the hunted! The Charger could not outrun the Mustang, the Maverick could not outrun the Torino.

So was Starskys car a 74 or 76? I'm confused most ppl say 1976 Torino, but the series started in 1975 so unless it was an early released 76 it had to have been older. Btw this was before my time and even though that's the case, I'm a fan of Starsky and Hutch. My Dad liked it back then as a teen in the 70s.

Whenever I see the original Starsky and Hutch television cars and then I'll look at tribute cars that people have done for some reason I can't help seeing a difference and when I look at the start of this video and see the two cars once again I see a difference and I think it is in the actual length of the car. Were the TV cars smaller in length? compared to tribute cars which may have been built in the in between years, say 1976 onwards and assuming the cars are the same model. I Don't actually know if there were different Ford Torinos which is another thing that makes tribute cars look different??.
