This is a real Starsky and Hutch movie car. It was pulled behind a camera vehicle and filmed for shots similar to the one above showing George Barris driving the car. |
I bought this car after its use in the 2004 movie.It was owned By George Barris and stiil had the "Barris Custom" badges on it. The car had been sitting on display at the Volo auto museum. It was by no means show quality by the time I got to it. We completely dissmantaled the car pulling the body off the frame and contiuing the Starksy and Hutch paint sceem under the car. We dropped in a Stroker 393 and a Tremic 5-speed. I also made the hood open reverse style as to more show off the engine compartment. My twin boys were with me many a sundays taking things apart and detailing as they went back together. There is a complete story of this car on the website devoted to the Starsky torinos. www.starskytorino.com |
This is the stunt car from the 2004 movie Taxi. It had been used and abused. This is our next undertaken. |
