- The striped tomato, the torino, Starsky's wheels - whichever way you call it, it's Starsky's pride and joy. It's one quick car! And it's one sweet ride!
Enjoy!

Best 70's cop show ,iconic, R.I.P David Soul greatly missed.
I think that the paint on that GRAN TORINO had a big part of the success of the show!
Add the stance and the wheels
I was thinking that same thing like for the red stripe on A-Team van😊
For a show that was on the air for such a short time, it has had amazing staying power and was a huge influence on American society even till today. No shows of today even come close to Starsky & Hutch.
Agreed. I remember begging my mother to let me stay up and watch this show back in the day. It used to be shown at around 10 in the evening if i remember right. Loved it. Then we got Knight Rider too. Good times. Some great shows on tv back in the 70's and 80's. Not so much these days.
@@Tony-1971 Yes, there is not even one show on television that I watch today.
4 years isn't short
@@ajjy1110 Many shows stay on the air for 10-15 years.
@@Tony-1971 agreed with you.
The car should have got equal billing. Loved the car, loved them, loved the show.
Yep! I tuned in EVERY week for those 3 pieces only! Starsky, Hutch, and Starsky’s Gran Torino! The show was gold too but when they were not in Starsky’s Gran Torino it was not QUITE as good for me!
I was only 7 or 8 watching the show in the uk and I loved it and still remember it to this day …. Happy days …. RIP David Soul … Hutch !!
@@glenhardy4770 I think Hutch's greatest suffering was in the scenes where Starsky was driving. Their scared faces seemed very real.
I liked this show when it first aired, and I still watch it to this day.
Me too.
same here
It doesn't get any better than this. I'm reliving the 70's with the greatest cops ever.
50 yes and I still can't forget STARSKY AND HUTCH💪👍❤
As a seven year old boy in the seventies, this Torino was what dreams were made of
The "look" YES! The car NO!
@@johnmaki3046 I like the Torino and so do many others .
Haven't seen any on Perth's roads but I love these cars a lot!
Jay Leno can talk all day long about his beloved cars. The only car I want in my garage is a 1975 Ford Gran Torino identical to the one Starsky describes throughout the various episodes.
Coming up to 50 years and it’s still looks so 😎
1975 is not almost 50.
@@stevep4574 The comment was typed about 24 months ago, making it approximately 43 years. How close to 50 to do want “coming up to 50” to actually be?! 😩

Love this. I went to a car show a few years ago, and there was Starsky's Torino, Starsky & Huggy had autographed the dash!!😍
As a kid I enjoyed that show
David Soul was perfect in Magnum Force.A year later he's got a great role in a great TV series.Thank you John Milius Ted Post and Clint Eastwood
David Soul 1943-2024 R.I.P.
I loved this car when I was a kid! My sister was in love with Starsky. 😁. I was in love with Hutch.😂. God bless the real TV shows!
Man, my first car was a 1976 Ford Torino! I bagged groceries for two years to save up $1,200. Bought it in ‘82 and was a cool cat for a while!
Got my First Torino in 1982 for graduation, after recovering from a car accident I did not cause...my dad found one and it made me feel like driving again! I now have my 2nd one, drive it for therapy!
Lol! This is literally impossible to do now!
Yup the '70s when people bought, drove, and loved big American made cars from Detroit. So many great memories, no seat belts didn't need them cars too tuff. Driving with the windows down, Kiss playing out of the 8 track player. Big wide tires on the rear, air shock called Hijackers. How I miss them days, thank God I still have my '70s cars and I'll keep driving them.
I wish I could say the same thing as even these mid 70;s cars are getting hard to find and getting up there in price
Also even the famed nikola tesla would not resist one and probably be driving a Baldwin motion phase three camaro
2 bad it wasn't a 1971 Boss 351 Mustang or a 1975 Plymouth Roadrunner.
It's not even fun to drive anymore because of those pussy seat belt laws.
+Bob Blueford I showed a guy like you when I was active duty why “pussy seat belts” are important! He almost kissed the windshield of our military transport vehicle when I locked ‘em up. I also wear a full-face helmet and leathers when on my motorcycle!
Though I’m not a Ford person I always thought that Torino was pretty badass!!
Loved the car for 40 odd years love the Show and love this amazing clip. Thank s 😊
I really like Starsky's torino.
Thank you for posting this. Show was a big part of my childhood. Show playing Saturdays on CozyTV.
Love it 💜this show is everything absolutely the best ever ,.with the most stunning men . 😍😍there never be nothing like it.💜💜
Just loved the show😊
My first car was a 1976 might have been the best car I've ever owned loved it!
Love the way he loved his car - I'm the same way about my beloved Fords!!!!
In fact he actually hated the car
+Keith Lestrange Paul Glaser hated the car. Starsky loved it. EVERY thing I love about Starsky’s Gran Torino I learned FROM Starsky.
@@whiteribbonman1 i know he hated the car ..he told me so when i met him
@@keithlestrange4249 You're missing the point, the actor 'Paul Glaser' hated the car, the character of Starsky loved the car.
@@RoastLambShanks ive met paul on 3 ocasions believe me i know how he felt about the car
Saturday afternoon 7 May 2022, still coming to my favorite video and still keeping watch for a 1975 2-door / column shift Gran Torino WITH power windows. 😀
FOMOCO PRODUCED 300 TORINOS WITH THIS COLOR SCHEME
Absolutely love this song and love, love, love the car!!
Me too!

It was totally different seeing hutch driving... What a cool flick!!
Acabo de descubrir este video y me emociono hasta las lagrimas.- Tenia tan solo 10-11 años cuando me ENAMORE de Starsky.- Verlos ahora a ellos con mas de 70 y el canal TCM volviendo a emitir la serie, vienen a mi mente epocas maravillosas de mi infancia.- Conoci personalmente a Hutch cuando vino a Buenos Aires a hacer un recital en lo que hoy es TELEFE!!!! Un ser increible que en los cortes se bajaba del escenario y compartia saludos con la tribuna (lastima que no existian los celulares).- GRACIAS a Paul y a David por formar parte de mi historia.- Lastima que aca, Argentina, no se conocieron mas cosas realizadas por ellos.- GRACIAS, GRACIAS, GRACIAS
One of my favourite shows when I was a kid. One of those iconic cars you never forget. What a nice idea to make a 1.8 scale model build of it. We are now in the process of building this model in Italy. R.I.P. David.
No matter how crazy Starsky drove , Hutch never wore his seat belt .
But there was that one time where Hutch said, "No offense man but I think I'm gonna walk." And Starsky stopped the car to let him out. haha
70s america seatbelts were not law
Solid comment
Nobody wore seatbelts back then.
I didn't start wearing seatbelts until the late 90s.
@@bigvalleylover2 Yessss. I think he wasn't having a good time at all.
THATS A SPECIAL CAR WITH 2 SPECIAL PEOPLE DRIvING IT..
Haha, "dont make me choose"
You make me choose... to hit that like button. :)
I love this car, I want one !!!
THAT CAR, LOVE THAT CAR!!!!!!!
"You didn't see the arrow......I didn't even see the Indians" was probably not a joke I would have gotten when I was seven years old watching this on TV
I loved that car, I had a toy model!!!😁
Great video! This really was one of the coolest cars ever on a TV show. I still have massive regret that me and my brother painted our toy Starsky & Hutch cars florescent pink in the mid 80's :(
I'm also pretty sure I get about 50% of my fashion sense from Starsky & Hutch.
Some awesome tv shows on back in the 70's and 80's. Good times. Thinking about it there used to be quite a lot of shows on tv for males. These days it seems there aren't many tv shows or movies being made that are aimed at the male audience. All about the girl power tv shows and movies now. Glad i grew up through the 70's and 80's.
Thumbs-Up #61 I am, Sunday 24 June 2018! This video is a great example of them! Fun! I love Starsky’s question to Hutch at the end “you ARE coming?”. . . . and Hutch’s look. 😆 That is what was great about them, neither one ever left the other out.
No me perdía la serie,igual ahora también la sigo,.en el gran Torino no tenía cinturones, en un capítulo Hutcht dice. Estoy hecho una licuad ora 😂😂 grandes actores ❤desde Uruguay 🇺🇾🇺🇾🇺🇾
Que serie más espectacular y los actores son una maravilla
Great work, and love the sound track!
I love that car it's beautiful
It is a cool car!! Great clips!!🚘🚗
Thank you! I really wanted to squeeze in the clip where Capt. Dobey is reading Starsky's report "the firey red torino fishtails to a halt. Hutch and me spill onto the street ready for action..." But I ran out of music. lol
@@bigvalleylover2 All he wanted was a report in English.🙃
Grande série, simplesmente fantástica.
It’s not just a fast car it’s quick and it’s beautiful
"Quick"? That car is slow.
Una de mis series favoritas vivan los 70S
I had a bought a new (used) car in 1977 or ‘78. I was going to the dealer with the check, and to trade in my car.
My dad was with me. We passed a car lot with a Striped Tomato sitting there,
If I’d been alone I’m not sure I wouldn’t have pulled in to see if I could afford it.
I have no doubts I couldn’t. But I could have least taken it for a drive.
The fact that PMG could convince us that Starsky actually loved that striped tomato 🍅 is a testimony to his acting chops. PMG hated that car. 🤣
And he’s the one that said it looked like a striped tomato the first time he saw the car
@@barbaralucas4191 exactly 😄😄
@@marydallas1 Well i like the car as do many others.
@@petergiannaros9037 I love that car
YES, like Starsky said (with emotion) “it’s bored, it’s stroked, it’s blueprinted, it’s a very special car”. “With that Tuned Suspension, trick motor, and the 4:5’s in the rear end. In the episode that has Starsky describing his motor he mentions “chrome rocker covers”. . . . . .also called rocker - arm covers to some. As much as one can love a car, I love Starsky’s Gran Torino! Power Windows, Column Shift, Split Bench in front, Factory Cruise, Gabriel HiJacker Air Shock in the rear, dual exhaust. Ford SHOULD have made available to its buyer a 6 - speed manual.
whiteribbonman1 not even close to stock
The police package was 226 horsepower 460 that thing wouldn’t catch a cold
+Stuart Schultz I never said anything about “stock”, nor did Starsky. You are blatantly wrong about “couldn’t catch a cold”. Mine was quick, it used to amaze the folks of Deutschland because of the way *I* drove it. It’s one limit was 120mph on the Autobahn. I would still get a thumbs-up or a salute from other motorists for trying.
@@whiteribbonman1 When some people can't get their hands on something really great, like certain others, these types become envious.
One of my favorite shows
Que grandes que son Excelentes Actores !!!!
My brother's girlfriend had a car that was the same make model and color everybody knew HER car, the Starsky & Hutch car.
Absolutely brilliant 👏👏👏😍😍😍
This show, the stars and the Torino..
Huge impact on my life
I. Wish I HAD. THAT. CAR. WOW OMG. YEAH.😊😊😊😊
It´s fantastic! You are so talented!
Thank you so much!
Wonderful compilation! Thanks man!
I would always Love to see them drive that red and white car.
I've always said if I EVER win the lottery this car will be the first thing I buy!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have all four seasons on DVD and have been watching them during the lockdown/unemployment. It's kinda funny, kinda sad to see the car as the series goes on..... It starts out with the racing mirrors and nice shiny mags.... by season 4, the mirrors have probably been knocked off so many times, they're just the standard chrome ones. The wheels are dull and grey and are missing their center caps. In one episode, I guess they damaged a wheel so the car has a steel wheel painted grey.
The wheels can be polished to a high shine...but the Keystone/American Racing five slot mags were brushed aluminum. Sport mirrors were on the 1974 model, and the blocky square mirrors/stock on the '75/'76 model. I have even different square mirrors on mine, and bucket seats 90% screen accurate. All that being said, I love it for all the different things it incorporates. As a friend once said: "This isn't Starsky's Torino, it's YOUR Torino."
BEST cop show ever!
A very Happy 75th Birthday to Paul today!! 🎂🍷😘
I'm so horrible with deadlines so this was a happy accident that it got finished just in time. :)
Loved this show as a kid. Thanks for this vid! (So glad The Good Doctor brought this car back on tv! lol)
Its like a coke can on wheels but I love it just the same. lol! ;) Loved this series as a kid. Almost became a cop because of it. ALMOST! LOL!
+EDDIE LEAL A “coke can on wheels” won’t handle the autobahns of Europe at 125 mph. My 1974 Gran Torino did easily.
THEEE! BEST!!!of thee BEST!!!!...PERiOD!
You've done it again! Bravo!
Don't make me choose!
So sad to have lost David. 😭😢😥
Este coche si pudiera hablar, cuántas anécdotas contaría que serie mas buena y que pareja de detectives mas inolvidable, gran serie
Ford got in there when chevy was ignoring it. For a car both actors hated it was the best thing ever and still is.
its memory that stays with me for ever
❤😢🙏🏻💫 David Soul 2024
Next to the Batmobile.This has to be my most favorite car,I would love to own.If I was rich of course.
RIP Hutch
Tha car looks and sounds soooooo good!!
I'm gonna start looking for a '76 Gran Torino to go w/ my '76 Terra Scout II Convertible Pick Up Truck ....... Mannnnn THAT is one very nice sounding GT ,!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍✌️
It's not a GT, and the sound was dubbed in. That car had a quiet single exhaust pipe.
Love that car, Lol they used a few of them in shooting the show, most obvious thing was the door mirrors constantly changed!!
0:32. Another one right there!
Plus the torino was a stick shift too
The first pilot it was a manual shift then switched to automatic but anyway love that red tomatoe
Didn't know that thanx
1st year used the color keyed racing mirrors.
David soul rip😢 in pace
I had one my senior year in high school-1979!!!
I'm drooling, would love to own one of the few Torino models, but im about 30k short
awesome show and car
Wow that was fantastic
That's really cool 👍👍 Love your vids.
Thank you so much! This video was a blast to make. :)
Excelente video 👌👌👌👌
2:45 lol, “You didn’t see the arrow huh? I didn’t see the Indians?”
Mi juventud..viendo estas series buenisimas
Get. Of the. Way. Paul is DRIVING.
Très bon souvenir. Nos belles années 😉
Great video.
👍
I have seen every episode (I think) and the documentaries on the making of their show / his Gran Torino. I have never heard anyone mention who wrote Starsky’s lines for DESCRIBING his powerplant or drivetrain.
"...with that tuned suspension/trick motor and the 45's in the rear end..." could be any number of customizations. A "tuned suspension" could be sway bars or gas shocks; "trick motor" is kinda what I have, a 302 step 1 which is street legal and works well w/the performance parts. A step 3 isn't street legal, and a 302 is...well, a 302. "45's in the rear end" could be gas shocks as a desirable Ford rear end is 9 inches. Also could be tire size bigger/wider than the front ones. Just having some fun with the dialog.
OMG i still remembet those days
R. I.P. David Soul (Hutch)
Went out to L.A. in 1980 to visit my brother and Sister-in-law and to buy a car to bring back to Illinois to restore. In a local Trdin Times there was an ad for the "Clean" Starsky and Hutch Torino for $2600.00. It came with the California Black 20th Century Fox plates. Decided to buy a 69 RoadRunner instead. What a mistake! Young & Dumb!
A '69 Roadrunner is worth far more.
MY DREAM CAR!!!!!! ❤❤
R.I.P. David Soul
The scene where David soul adjusted the mirror it had chrome mirrors on it
Those pilot mirrors are tough to find, but I scored a set off eBay motors, never been happier! Always cracked me up Hutch was told to "fix" (reorient) the mirror. "Don't walk on my car"; "That's my bonnet you're steppin on!" and "See what you did? All over my seats!"
I like the episode when they crashed and Hutch faked amnesia.
Two smart guys and a fucking car. This is it
Whoa! Perfect day!
