Starsky & Hutch Ford Torino

I remember watching Starsky and Hutch, and their Ford Torino was just like The General Lee was to The Dukes of Hazzard. My only surprise was it took this long for a model of the car to be released. As for this model, it is one of the best kits Revell had released in a long time. The pieces are well engineered and fit together without any problems. The decals are excellent, and the white stripes don't show any of the red through them. And best of all, I couldn't find any major errors in the instructions. If you remember the show, or just like older muscle car this is a great addition to a collection.

This was an excellent kit with great parts fit and a really fun build. The stripes are a little tricky go line up and get on right, but a lot of patience and Micro-Set and Micro-Sol decal solution will help a lot. There are some good details and the kit lends itself well to extra details like plumbing and wiring, although I only added plug wires to mine. This is a must have for any fan of the show.

This was a fun kit to build - no real issues. I am surprised they are still selling this so long after the show ended. The decals are great - very thick. The white stripe looks painted on (with Micro Sol). I really like the wood grain details on the interior too. Mine seemed to be missing the front license mount - it wasn't in the parts or the instructions. I also forgot to install the side windows before putting the body on the chassis. My fault, but I got them in with some skewers and finesse. Great kit overall - a lot of chrome to match the real car.
