Starsky & Hutch TV Show Actors Coming to Carlisle in June

CARLISLE, Pa. - April 26, 2016 - PRLog -- Car shows backed by Carlisle Events almost certainly provide an unmatched level of style and elegance as it relates to the vehicles being shown.  One could say the excitement of being able to see nearly 100 years of automotive history in one place would be enough, but what happens with a Carlisle Events backed show is what sets them above and beyond "the rest."  In addition to the classics and modern day gems, Carlisle Events annually welcomes guests that are historically associated with a certain type of car or brand; and for the 2016 Carlisle Ford Nationals, the tradition continues with two actors who became internationally known due to an adrenaline filled program that also had a cool car as its co-star.

Carlisle Ford Nationals weekend runs June 3-5 at the Carlisle PA Fairgrounds and by all accounts is the biggest all-Ford themed event in the world.  There are opportunities to meet representatives from Ford, test drive Ford's latest products, have Ford experts handle part installs, a massive swap meet and midway, the National Parts Depot Showfield of over 3,000 cars and of course the car corral.  That's where even more awesome Fords are for sale by owner.

2016 also features unique displays themed around the Bronco, Pinto, Roush cars, Mystic Cobras, 1966 Fords and the Torino; but not just any Torino, the Starsky & Hutch Tornio.  The aforementioned red and white gem was the centerpiece of the TV show Starsky & Hutch which ran from 1975-1979 and aired on ABC for 93 episodes.  In addition to the Torino, also made famous during the four-year run of the program were actors Paul Michael Glaser and Antonio Fargas.  In order, they played David Starsky and Huggy Bear.  In June, Carlisle Events is excited to welcome two of the show's stars, Glaser and Fargas.  They'll join guests from the world over to celebrate the show and their beloved Torino.

Not only will Glaser and Fargas come to Carlisle, but so will dozens of Starsky & Hutch Torino's, including more than a few that are certified "Hollywood Cars," meaning some were used during the TV show, while others were used in the 2004 movie that started Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson and Snoop Dogg.

The cars and actors will join the Starsky & Hutch Tornio Club for the weekend at Carlisle and will be found on the east side of the grounds near Building Y.  Starsky & Hutch Torino owners, lovers, fans of the show and general automotive enthusiasts are encouraged to make a day or full weekend out of this unique showcase.

Complete details about the event and display are available at www.CarlisleEvents.com.  Pre-registration show car discounts of 10% are in place now through May 2, 2016.  After that, through the start of the event in June, full price will be in effect.  Yet another way to save is by purchasing a weekend pass for just $25, a savings of $6 vs. paying daily.
