So we finally get a Starsky and Hutch Torino, How about series of TV kits ?

[unclescott58]

In an old episode of "Secret Agent" with Patrick McGoohan he was being driven in an early 50s SAAB 92. I would love a kit of that. I expect the silence to be deafening regarding that wish!

Hey Andy I'm with you on that one. A SAAB 92 would be very cool.

@Bruce- The MASH Ambulance is a Dodge truck...leftovers from WWII. Also based on the Power Wagon of that vintage. I just saw one last week at Model Empire on the shelf. So, they actually can still be had reasonably. It also comes with figures...A doctor(Hawkeye or BJ Honeycut), Klinger, and a wounded soldier. And yes, I think it is 1/35th.

[Volvoman]

Great news to hear that we will be getting a Starsky and Hutch Torino eventually, I thought that we would have had one years ago!!

On the subject of cars we would like to see released, I remember watching a series called 'Due South' and the one character drove a green '71Buick Boattail Riviera. That one would probably sell I think. And what about any 80's four door sedan, Ford LTD, Chevrolet Caprice/Impala, Dodge St Regis/Diplomat? Most were used in police series in one form or another so a few of them would be nice.

[Joe Handley]

Honestly, I would have rather seen that Riv over the S&H Torino, even without the show licensing......then again, I'd still rather have a Tucker in kit form over the Torino too.

[mnwildpunk]

anyone mention Columbo's Humber sedan or whatever that was?

edit: oops just learned it was a Peugeot

jb

yes I did awhile back but it wasn't a hit guess you and I are the only ones that watched the show

[Tom Geiger]

Here's one that hasn't been mentioned yet... I believe Round 2 still has that 1980 Volare tool!

[keyser]

Surprised nobody has mentioned the Coyote from Hardcastle & McCormick...now there's winner of a kit! What a mess of plastic.

But, back on topic. Does anyone know if the S&H Torino is going to be a full detail kit?

From Revell 4th quarter thread per Exotics Builder

Coyote used most suspension parts from Ford GT40 Mk IV kit, lame tub/body. Better to have 427 and nice chassis gearbox than a fiberglass lump true to 1:1 in that case.

I'd just like to be able to build the Rockford files Trans AM even if it was a resin transkit to go over the AMT 77 Trans Am Blackbird or one few the Revellogram 24th scale Trans Am kits.

[peter31a]

Don't know if this has been mentioned yet but how about a Volvo P1800 from The Saint?

[hgbben]

Gov't issue GMC Yukon Denali from Criminal Minds

No...........! Please no! Sorry but that is butt ugly. And I like Volares!

The Saint Volvo P1800, like Mr. McDonald mentioned would be cool though.

"My sister and I get each other prank presents. One year she gave me a pair of Barbie size man dolls that she got at the Dollar Store. One was white, the other black... but they had faces like mean felons. Little kids would be afraid of these dolls. We couldn't stop laughing. Figure that this was some Chinese designer's idea of what Americans looked like."

Sounds hilarious - my friends and I enjoy browsing places like that for the misfit toys! C'mon - pictures, man!!

[bisc63]

Oh, more on topic, about any of the cars from "Bewitched" over its run could be cool.I know Darren drove a convertible, either Camaro or Chevelle, and I believe Larry Tate drove an Impala convertible.

Larry Tate drove Corvettes in a lot of episodes.

Sorry to say these are long gone. Otherwise I would've included photos.... they'd make good Barbie community mug shots!

That would be cool! How about Patrick Jane's Citroen from "The Mentalist"? Quirky, non?

[English Jules]

I would love to see some models of the cars the guys drive on british top gear greatest show ever

Its popular all over the world, had been filmed in my local city for some parts.

Anyway whats that about the Revell Crown Vic snap tite? seems a total waste of time, esp as the Lindberg is still around

a 74 Monaco like seen on CHiPs etc would be nice

[Goose1957]

The Winchester boys Chevy would be nice.

+10 on this! Dean Winchester's 1967 Impala from Supernatural would be killer. Just make sure it's 4 door, has the correct wheels, and a false trunk full of weapons!

Also, I'd like to see Jon Voight's LeBaron from Seinfelt, complete with teeth marks. Or maybe Krammer's Caprice with the... ahem..."buttman" license plate on it. Lol.

See ya at the finish line,

Jeff

[charlie8575]

How about a Checker cab like those seen in Taxi and so many other TV shows? Naturally, I'd want one that could be built as a stock non taxi/Maraton version also.

Scott

I'd seriously buy a fleet of those.

I'd buy one just because it's weird. I like the 96s, too, I'd love to see a 96 wagon.

All of the above.

And I'd like a P1800, too. Beautiful car.

[MyBradKeselowski]

Krammer had a 73 Impala not a Caprice, until later episodes then he had a 87-90 Caprice.

[Goose1957]

Thanks for the correction. I was going off memory a couldn't remember which car was which. Maybe even Neuman's mail van with JFK's beat up golf clubs in it.

Jeff

[1/24DragAndStreetCars]

Heres my list of cars:

Bullit mustang "elanor", and Charger

JOE DIRTS so called "Hemi" (it is a hemi but its a roadrunner) and his daytona

American Graffitis pretty much all of the goodies!

Snake and Mongoose haulers and cars

and pretty much all the cars in the movie "Winged Warriors" coming out! Nascar 'Bird and Daytona time!

[Old Nasty]

If anyone remembers a show called "Ironside" with Raymond Burr, he was in a wheelchair & had an old '40's paddy wagon set up for him to travel around in. I don't recall the make but it was pretty cool. If we're talking movie cars; "Jeepers Creepers" '41 (?) chevy cabover straight truck or "The Car" custom Lincoln Continental by Barris.
