BAY CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT EVIDENCE ROOM
Cold Case File No. 1-1984
Here is the first Limited Edition that I purchased in 1984 and sold in 1993. As any former S&H owner will tell you, 'You will regret selling it.' Thus, the S&H I own now.
After I sold it to the 4th owner, the car went on to be featured in the January/February 1996 FCA newsletter, "The Fairlaner"
If the above photo looks familiar it is because it has been all over the internet for years. It is my first S&H shortly after I sold it to owner #4 who replaced the original 400 engine with a fire breathing 460 monster.
The 5th owner lived in Maryland and the 6th and current owner has it in Ohio. Hopefully, some day I will run into the present owners at a cruise-in or car show and we will be able to take some photos together. If so, they will be posted here! If you are the current owner, please sign the guestbook and update everyone on the car!

Before it was sold, I had the honor of parking beside Doug S.'s original S&H Torino from the television series. Looking at the picture, Doug's former TV Hero Car is on the right. If you have the 1st Season DVD set, then you've seen Doug & his Star Cars featurette.
