A Gran Torino (You Know Which One)

In the mid-late 1970's, one of the most popular tv shows was Starsky and Hutch, although I was never a big fan of it.  I liked Baretta much more.
The car driven on Starsky and Hutch remains one of the most recognizable and popular vehicles in tv history.  It is a 2 door Gran Torino and Paul Michael Glaser (aka Starksy) hated the car.  He referred to it as the "striped tomato", a name which would be used on the show itself by David Soul (aka Hutch).  The car changed from a 1975 to a 1976 model, along with a few other modifications, during the course of the series.
Much like my mild disdain for the show, I didn't like the car either.  On the other hand, Baretta's 1966 Chevy Impala (aka the Blue Ghost) was my kind of car!
Why isn't that car doing the convention circuit?!
