Ivan went looking for a S&H Torino without any luck in 1980, but he did find a '73 Gran Torino and bought it. He and his wife, Linda, still have it 23 years later (blue car in photo, below). For the last 15 years, they have been looking for a S&H Torino or a '74 to '76 Torino to make into replica. In 2000, they found another 73 Gran Torino, and went to look at it as a potential parts car for the blue one just in case. It was in such good shape that they knew it was to become their S&H car!

It is a 1973 Gran Torino with automatic, air, AM/FM 8-Track, and a 351C 2V. Ivan & Linda removed all the chrome and added a stripe kit from Detective Brent. They also added a new headliner, carpet, and stained the interior and dash black. They left in the 8-track and added a Pioneer CD sound system [good move], added dual exhaust with cherry bomb mufflers up front by the tranny, and ran 2 1/4" pipes out the back for a "nice sound."
Since these pictures were taken, they have added 5/8" body side molding and rear air shocks to the car.
