    love the Striped Tomato! Hated that reboot movie, but the Torino they used in the movie didn't need any audio effects. Got to see the movie car down in Miami. Such a beauty. Fantastic work on this

      The only thing good about the reboot was The car.( and cameo by David and Paul) that /those cars were frigging seriously hopped up unlike the originals from the show.its a Shame the movie poked fun at one of the greatest buddy cop duos. This corgi ended up looking more like the reboot car .Deezer collection museum?

    It has been hotter than usual, nothing like leaving for work at 5:30 in the morning walking out of house and instantly start sweating. The car turned out amazing, one of the most iconic TV cars in history. You sure as hell Shined the snot out of that turd, a little rubbing compound and elbow grease and she is beautiful. Another fine piece brother.

Unfortunately the hopped up car and the cameo by David and Paul were the only good things about that movie.

    Who the hell made that car turd brown???? Some kid had BIG issues. But, on the plus side, if it hadn't looked so shitty, you wouldn't have brought it back to beyond it's original beauty.

    What a difference it makes when you puty the right wheels on a car. So often, you see "Starsky and Hutch" cars and the stripe is all wrong. This is about the best I've seen. I haven't compared it side-by-side with the tv car but *it just looks right* on this one.

    Why didnt they ever make a model of Hutchs car.
    Was it a 70s Crown Imperial, or a Ford Galaxy?
    Somebody shouls have released a Starsky And Hutch model vehicle "Twin Pack", of course, including what was called 'The Original Dave Hutchinson"
    It WOULD sell a million units or more, surely...😂
