1976 Ford Torino STARSKY & HUTCH 1001 LIMITED EDITION
1976 Ford Torino Torino
Howpopular was the Starsky and Hutch Zebra 3 Gran Torino? Though it trails behindthe General Lee and the Smokey and Bandit Trans Am, enough folks coveted thecar to warrant Ford’s creationof the Starsky and Hitch Special Gran Torino in 1976. A Virtual look alike ofthe TV car, Ford’s Chicago Plant built 1001 units with the distinctive Zebra3 tow -tone color treatment. When you look at the VIN the second digit Gsignifies that it was built by Ford. Further more when looking at VehicleCertification label where the DSO code must read 0022. The Zebra 3 Gran Torinofrom Starsky and Hutch actually appeared in the 1st episode of the Dukes ofHazzard (titled “One Armed Banditâ€) Cooter Davenport (Played by actor BenJones) is seen behind the wheel. The Starsky /Hutch car used in the thatepisode was certainly one of the 1001 replicas built by Ford in 1976, and not aloan out car. The Ford Chicago plant workers had to paint each of the 1001 carsnot once, but two times. (Source Steve Magnante’s 1001 Muscle car facts)
