Check out the improvements that S&H Torino owner Kit S.
made to his Ertl S&H replica! He added the horizontal bumper
guards to the front and back, he blacked out the grille,
and he painted the turn signals yellow from the inside.
These look like pictures of a real car, don't they!?

If you've got the skill, and about $45, Model Car World will sell you
a 1/25th scale resin (plastic) 1976 Ford Gran Torino model kit.
You can paint it like S&H if you want to, as Paul G. did here!
The kit includes the body, grille, bumpers, lights, wheels, dash,
and "glass." You need to also purchase (from a store or eBay) a
Revell 1970 Torino Cobra kit to provide the chassis, engine, & interior.
Another chassis might do, but the Torino Cobra's interior is nice.

In 2001, someone produced a 1/24th scale die-cast replica
of Bill Elliot's 1976 Gran Torino Stock Car.
S&H Torino owner Joe W. took one of those, added the interior
from a 1/25th scale Ford LTD Ohio State Police car model,
and this is the result! That's an original Bill Elliot replica on the right.
