Andreas Kaluzny built this model of the "Striped Tomato" Ford Torino from the Starsky and Hutch television series. Andreas used a body from Nick V. of Berlin, who had made a form of this car and formed it up with liquid plastic (note: presumably resin - webmaster). Andreas carved out the windows and made an interior and a chassis for mounting the axels. The car from the television series was so popular the Ford Motor Company even produced a limited production run of 1,000 "Starsky& Hutch" 1976 Gran Torinos!
