Starsky & Hutch Gran Torino value?

I was driving around a country road in Kansas (where I live) looking at farms and seeing what kinda junk the farmers leave out (pretty cool stuff sometimes) and ran across two 1976 Starsky %26amp; Hutch Gran Torino's side by side. One had tires stacked on it and the other was on cinder blocks with fallen branches across the hood (no damage tho), and was just wondering if they were worth anything. I always thought that the car was ugly and I never liked the show all too well but this is the first time seeing one of the cars in person. I asked the owner about them (old farmer in his 80's) and he said that the one on cinder blocks had a 302 and the one under the tires had a 460. I have tried Nada Guides and similar websites to find their value but none have an estimate. I'm giving a true story here, no joke, the farmer has TONS of other old vehicles scattered through-out his property, I was just wondering if they were worth going back and giving him an offer.|||it all depends if they are clones or stunt cars... which may be beyond repair. so anywhere between $1000 and $10,000..





and it doesn't really matter what they are worth, what counts is what the owner will sell them for...you should have asked him..|||It depends greatly on the condition of (what is left of) the vehicles.





If they have been sitting out in a field for years, they might have excessive rust, or have been badly wrecked and might not be able to (easily) be restored.





Obviously, you can 'restore' anything, although it might mean replacing a lot of it.





Chances are, if they are still laying there, they either aren't worth much, or aren't worth restoring.|||depends on the engines condition, and interiors....


but i would say its between $700 or $3000
