Mark B / Scooter Davenport got a reaction from Skipper Duke in Cooter's hats
Unless you pay close attention, you may think that Cooter always wears the same hat (probably the one in the title sequence). Bo and Luke even chat about Cooter wearing the same old hat in 'Welcome Back Bo and Luke'.
But if you DO pay close attention, you'll know that that Cooter wears no less than 9 different caps during the run of the 7 seasons. If you count the two reunion movies, then the total is 11.
Most of these hats are/were existing real-world caps. Here is a guide to all of his hats (let me know if I missed any!):

Mark B / Scooter Davenport got a reaction from Garrett Duke in Congratulations MarkB/Scooter Davenport
Sorry I'm late to the party here myself, but that write-up Roger did made my head so big, I couldn't get through the door to the next room where the computer is!
But seriously: I appreciate the love, and I appreciate the comradery here even more. Dukes fans are nothing but the finest people, so this is always a welcoming place to 'set a spell' and chew the fat.

This project is like peeling back an onion with the amount of details- every time I get one layer done, I noticed another layer of things in the same pictures I've been staring at for 5 years. Its weird what you DON'T see when you are looking for something specific. I just noticed the other day that the back door has a door closer thingy at the top. After doing a quick google search for some reference, I find it is in fact called a 'door closer', and the one in question is a 'vintage' style. Its one of those every day objects we've all seen a thousand times in our life, but never focused on. Fortunately for me, a 'vintage door closer' is shaped awfully similar to a piece of plastic model kit sprue in 1/25 scale!
Then there are the fan belts: turns out that 1/25 fan belts are pretty much identical to small hair 'elastics' (discovered thanks to my two daughters!). The bad news: they only had rainbow colored ones. The good news: found a package of 500 in black at the dollar store for... one dollar. Felt a little weird buying them as they are apparently made for African-American folks' hair, so I got a coke and some peanuts to draw attention away from it.

Mark B / Scooter Davenport got a reaction from RogerDuke in Need help- all episodes with Cooter's brown chevy tow truck
Can anyone provide episode titles that feature Cooter's brown chevy tow truck? I believe its just season one but I could be wrong. I know its featured heavily in Repo Men, but I need to know the others.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Mark B / Scooter Davenport got a reaction from RogerDuke in Logan Lucky movie
Anyone here seen the movie Logan Lucky? Its been one of my favorite movies since it came out and I realized today that it has a very 'Dukes' flavor to it. If you haven't seen it, do so any let me know what you think!

Mark B / Scooter Davenport got a reaction from Andrea Como in The Boar's Nest in 1/25 scale
Here we go again! After Cooter's Garage, the next natural place to stop in Hazzard is the Boar's Nest.
Like the garage, this is such an iconic location that I had to do this one the same way- detailed inside and out. I'll keep posting more as things are completed.

Mark B / Scooter Davenport got a reaction from Andrea Como in Hazzard Square model of a model
This is the beginning of a larger project- basically a model of a model. This is to figure out if this scale is good for the eventual project to see if its big enough, etc., but its fun to see Hazzard Square in 3 dimensions even in this monotone form! To answer the inevitable question, its made from printed designes mounted to foam core and assembled with hot glue.

Yes indeed- part of the plan! I'm willing to fudge the numbers a little on vehicles. If they have to be out of scale, I'd prefer slightly larger anyway.
