Hey, I saw this car in the first episode of The Dukes of Hazzard once. Why is their car in that show? Also, there's a liquor store in my town with one of these cars there. |

they used 75's and 76's in the series. 75's have chrome side mirrors, 76's have the red mirrors. in one episode there was also another gran torino with same paint scheme which was part of a crime scene(ill get back to you with what ep) |

Like a lot of shows back then, the Torino was changed every model year of that body style. I suppose they kept the same vehicle when the body style changed in 1976 until the end of the show's run. I do remember that the first season the interior of the Torino was the base model (bench seat). Next season the car got the fancy interior (bucket seats). DOes anyone else remember this? |

If I remember right David Soul (Hutch) requested bucket seats because he kept falling from the seat in high speed action scenes... |

ep. 1.00 - pilot ![]() The red/white Torino used in the pilot was actually a 1975 model from the studios car loan program, has chrome mirrors, and chrome bodyside moldings. The torino is basic model which was a originally silver with matching bumper panels, whitewall tires, and was painted over to bright red with a white stripe with blackwall tires aftermarket slotted mags, and air shocks added. The Murder victims actually use the same car as Starsky. ![]() The two pilot Torinos in today's world which are currently owned by Douglas Stevenson in Cleveland, Ohio. -- Last edit: 2008-11-11 18:04:31 |
