Description

How popular was the Starsky and Hutch Zebra 3 Gran Torino? Though it trails behind the General Lee and the Smokey and Bandit Trans Am, enough folks coveted the car to warrant Ford's creation of the Starsky and Hitch Special Gran Torino in 1976. A Virtual look alike of the TV car, Ford's Chicago Plant built 1001 units with the distinctive Zebra 3 tow -tone color treatment. When you look at the VIN the second digit G signifies that it was built by Ford. Further more when looking at Vehicle Certification label where the DSO code must read 0022. The Zebra 3 Gran Torino from Starsky and Hutch actually appeared in the 1st episode of the Dukes of Hazzard (titled "One Armed Bandit”) Cooter Davenport (Played by actor Ben Jones) is seen behind the wheel. The Starsky /Hutch car used in the that episode was certainly one of the 1001 replicas built by Ford in 1976, and not a loan out car. The Ford Chicago plant workers had to paint each of the 1001 cars not once, but two times. (Source Steve Magnante's 1001 Muscle car facts)
