Hey Spike, if you want to come to God's country, you just let me know. I could set you up with a place and point you in the right direction to find a job!

Most definitely! Here in Hazzard, we're all friends and it's real close in here...nice and cozy! If you know about the Dukes and the town, you may know about the guy that owns the car lot just outside of town, the town drunk...Hobie Harkins. That's where I got my name but I bet I don't drink more than 6 beers a year! I just used his name because I think he's hilarious! I joke a lot though about making it and drinking it ( although I've only had Moonshine twice in my whole life! )

I've never had a chance to see the HD versions, but we did discuss them several years ago when CMT started showing them - see here. That discussion included criticism of the cropping and also the differently applied lighting effects. I assume that the Amazon versions haven't been edited for timing reasons. I think I'll be sticking to my DVDs for the time being.

I saw a commercial tonight for The Walking Dead. It was about fans coming together and becoming friends over the show. One of the fans said something along the lines of "I've created a family out of a tv show." Well, Dukes fans have been doing that for FORTY years! I know I'm not around here as often, but you all have helped me through some tough times. You're my Dukes family.

I always think that every time I watch it especially around Halloween. I wish they would have done something better like a haunted house that didn't get solved until the end of the episode like on Scooby Doo. Then at the end Boss could have said "I'd have gotten away with it if it weren't for those pesky Dukes."

That's a nice model of Jesse's truck! On the show when they gave a description of a car they would describe it as a blue sedan or a red truck or something generic instead of using the cars actual names.

Whatever the worst Dukes of Hazzard episode is.....it is still better than the best episode of any other TV series in history.

It's the dawning of a new decade!

Black (The Penny Black was the World's first adhesive postage stamp)

Organ (a lot of old churches have large pipe organs) I think Hobie meant the Beaudrys, who appeared in 'Boss Behind Bars' and 'Daisy's Shotgun Wedding'. That's why I said "Wedding".

A couple of forums have a very rough sketch of the wide push bar with measurements, but I can't see any plans for the narrow one. Having said that, the Smith Bros. site still appears to offer a narrow push bar for $299, which includes shipping to the lower 48. I'm sure you've probably searched the internet, but I found an interesting discussion about the pros and cons of each type of push bar, and advice on fixing methods, at www.dodgecharger.com. It looks like the steel push bars weigh somewhere between 30 and 45 lbs, and several people expressed an interest in getting push bars made of aluminum if they could get plans. The dodgecharger link above also discusses the best way to paint them. I never joined CGLFC, but did browse it many times. If there's any information you need from that site, you may be still be able to access it through the Wayback Machine.

It sounds like you have a good plan to fix the problem. I highly recommend Dukes DVDs for medicinal purposes. I think you'll be fine. When you have a string of bad luck things go your way that only means one thing. You are due for a string of good luck things to go your way. Let us know when that happens. This is the season for goodness after all.

My husband saw a lady wearing a Dukes of Hazzard shirt in the grocery store the other day. He told her, "I LOVE that show!"

A lot of these drivers were well before I took an interest in NASCAR, and I don't tend to watch/read much outside the actual races, so I'm quite pleased with 30/47. Two of them I got because of Dukes, and I'll credit another three to Garrett . Some of the questions were lazy - I counted three where two of the wrong answers were the same as each other, another had Danica Patrick as a possible answer for a picture of a male driver, and my favorite where the driver's name was on his car in the background!

This is bad news, bad news. I haven't heard this yet and it is upsetting. I hope you'll use that time you spent on fantasy NASCAR and put it toward your NASCAR threads here Garrett. I'd hate to lose contact with you. You've been a good friend for a long time.

As a tribute to Don Pedro Colley, a line from "Dead and Alive": Rosco: "Listen, you know something? I have half a mind to write you a ticket." Sheriff Little: "Coltrane, you ain't even got a QUARTER of a mind, no less half."

When you look at the many ways rock music has split in 50 years country music hasn't done much except drop the western in county western. I think it's due for a split though. They need to label some of this stuff county-pop and get it off the radio stations that are calling themselves country. If you want to call yourself country you need to stop playing some of that stuff. Folks like me have stopped listening.

I don't remember how the episodes were originally shown, but, according to IMDb, it looks 'Carnival of Thrills' and '10 Million Dollar Sheriff' were screened back-to-back, but the two parts of 'Undercover Dukes' were shown a week apart. Now that we have DVDs, it doesn't make much difference as there's no waiting. The two-parters also let us have slightly deeper storylines.

I'm very un-American, and I still like Cathy .

I liked Mary-Margaret Humes aka. Tinker from 'Mason Dixon's Girls', although I'll be adding more as I remember them .

Well, today's Hungarian GP sure didn't turn out like that. A win for Ferrari, and Red Bull filling the other two podium places. Mercedes could only manage sixth and eighth in an incident-packed race.

Gotta admit I made the same mistake when I first rolled into town. After spending a few days in solitary confinement I never made that mistake again.

My two favorites are What this World Needs Is a few More Rednecks and Simple Man. They are my number 2 and 3 all time favorite songs behind Hank Jr's Country Boy can Survive. Unless you count the theme to the Dukes as a song. That would be my number one.

My favorite moonshiner is Jesse Duke. My second favorite is Hobie Harkins. My third favorite is Popcorn Sutton. Since two of those three have passed on to ShineHeaven all that's left is Hobie's Finest....although rumor has it that Hoss has a couple barrels of Jesse's hidden down in the root cellar. Somehow they made it across Hazzard Pond.

Welcome to HNet. I never made a big map, but I can tell you where most of the locations are. I only had access to Google Streetview for my "now" pictures, so feel free to post your own photos if you can get better angles. I think that most of the loose ends have been tied up now, but there may be some places I missed. If you spot any new locations that you recognize, I'd like to see them.

Well, the Christmas parties are usually just time to chat but If not many folks are interested we could forget the chatting part and just watch the Santa Claus episode while making comments.

As you can see, we're all over the world and there are many of us! It's good to have you in the family...ALL of you in the family!!

That just might work for me. I won't know until later this week. It depends on the possibility of having to work overtime.

Happy Sadie Hogg Day Everyone! In locals other than Hazzard, I would also like to wish everyone a happy APRIL FOOLS DAY! But seriously, in Hazzard, as per the TV series, today is Sadie Hogg Day... This is the day that the men take the day off and the women take over. Anyone want to paint the patrol cars Pink? Purple? Anyone?

Now that I think of it, Gandalf does look a bit like a moonshiner.

THIS IS AWESOME NEWS! Is this just the start of a long career? When you give your acceptance speechs in all your future awards don't forget to thank your agent, manager, family, make up artists, writers, production crew and all your friends at the HazzardNet.....because we have believed all along that you are Hawesome.

Considering how many Truck and Xfinity races he did along with the Cup series, what he's accomplished isn't much different than the 60's and 70's era, also considering he's in top tier equipment with Gibbs/Toyota racing just like Petty was with Chrysler backing. .He's the reason for the rule that Cup series drivers can enter only 5 truck and xfinity series races. There is no comparison though, I don't think he'd last 5 seasons if even that in Petty era Nascar cars,they were a lot harder to drive than the ones they do now. Kyle's 11th in all time Cup Wins but I can see him making it up to 9th but I don't think he'll surpass Dale Earnhardt sr's 76 wins.

Here is Serges GL getting some TLC. He has a tranny leak and he is trying to track it down.

I'm breaking two rules here: one of HazzardNet's and one of my own! I'd promised myself that I would try not to create any more threads in 'Fan Art' (I figured I was being greedy), but here I go with a new one. Not only that, but the artwork isn't even related to the Dukes of Hazzard (I hope the mods will be gentle with me ). Seeing as I had updated vector art for a Dodge Charger and a '68 Mustang I couldn't resist the urge to do this project, so I'm kicking off this new thread with the two cars from possibly the greatest chase in movie history. If you haven't guessed, it's 'Bullitt'. The baddies had the black '68 Charger (I had to change the front end, rear end and side markers), while Steve McQueen chased them in a highland green Mustang. For those of you unfamiliar with the chase, you can see most of it here. I've got a few other movie cars in mind, and will add them as soon as they're done.

I got to see most of the Indy 500. Who would've thought that both races would have Aussie winners? Congratulations to Daniel Ricciardo and Will Power.

You're older than I thought. I don't know what was making me think you were younger. I suppose it's not possible to make shine as good as yours and be young. Talent like that takes decades to acquire.

The West Country accent may work well in Lord of the Rings, but here's a behind-the-scenes clip from the original Star Wars. It would have been a very different movie if they'd used Dave Prowse's own voice.

That's pretty cool. Flatt and Scruggs are legendary. They did the Beverly Hillbilly theme didn't they?

Funny you should mention that... I have tinkered around with MediaWiki (what Wikipedia runs on) on the site and may still have it installed in a directory somewhere. If not, I can always reinstall. If you guys are interested in adding some content to the site and sprucing it up a bit, I'll look into getting a wiki ready and 1) seeing if I can tie it into your current logins or 2) if not, getting some sort of secure login so we can make sure the wiki isn't spammed. Perhaps we should move over all the content about the episodes, trivia, etc, from the WordPress install to the wiki and just keep the blog at the root of the site for updates and current events. Let me know what you guys think.

I know that this is out there in another section, but I thought we could also do it here, under his name. Brotherly Love "Now you can't see the wheels spinning in Enos's head 'cause they're so tiny. But they're really humming. A Baby for the Dukes " Now, about this time Boss Hogg was having a county budget meeting with Rosco and Enos, who couldn't count a dozen eggs without taking off thier shoes.

Howdy, Haven't been on-line much last week or so, but I'm still around I'll have to double-check "Mrs. Rosco P. Coltrane"; my memory is telling me that in a few close-ups or Rosco, the 'E' disappears and re-appears.

While I'm doing movies with Chargers, I guess I should do 'Christine' (1983). Of course, it would be impossible to do 'Christine' without doing Christine herself. I can tell you she's a 1958 Plymouth, and is usually referred to as a Fury, although she has characteristics from a Belvedere too. I normally do the windows some kind of green/blue color but it only seemed right to do Christine's windows black. For those who don't remember, Arnie bought Christine from a guy whose "brother bought her back in September '57. That's when you got your new model year, in September. Brand-new, she was. She had the smell of a brand-new car. That's just about the finest smell in the world..." (and I'll leave that quote there!). Here's the Charger that belonged to Arnie's friend, Dennis. Apart from the wheels it looks like a pretty stock 1968 base model. There aren't any clear shots of the tires, so it took me a while to identify them. Earlier this week, over on the Facebook page, Brian Burgett asked "Was it a repainted General Lee?". I have no inside information, but based on observation, I'd say no. I can't believe they'd convert a General from a '69 to a '68 and replace the vinyl roof when an all blue '69 Charger would have worked just as well. On the other hand, since this car is almost unique in movie history - a Dodge Charger that makes it to end of the movie in one piece! - it could have been converted to a General afterwards. The movie provides an unusual scene for us Dukes fans when Arnie first arrives at Darnell's: a Dodge Charger following a Plymouth Fury! The Charger's horn is required to open the door, but sadly it's stock, not Dixie. I have the 1:18 Ertl model of Christine (Autoworld are rumored to be reissuing it at the end of 2012), and Danbury Mint made 1:24 models of Christine and the Charger, but they always leave out Buddy Repperton's car. It was a '67 Camaro with black stripes and a shiny set of Corvette wheels. Watch the movie carefully and you'll see that the engine is removed before the car meets its fate. I never got a clear screengrab of the emblem on the front fender, so I had to guess what it was and put something plausible there. If it's wrong and anyone knows what it should be, I'll change it.

thanks =D i'll make sure to watch daisy's song.lol
