Just a drabble about Starsky’s car. I loved the movie Gran Torino! “Are you sayin’ that this is a sissy car?” “I didn’t say that,” Hutch corrected. “I just said it wasn’t a real muscle car.” “You wanna’ explain your reasoning on that, Partner?” Starsky snarled. “Well, can you imagine a real action hero driving one?” Hutch asked patronizingly.
