Any good pics of the CB antenna and its mounting on Daisy's jeep? Or at least if I know what kind it was I can research and find images of the product itself....need something clear enough to scratchbuild a likeness.

Thanks Hoss, one of the shots in the thread you linked to really summed it up perfectly; I'm very grateful!

Working on the Dixie Jeep as my next model creation. Can't figure out the floor....thought it would be white (body metal/painted) with black rubber mats in front of the front seats....but now folks on a non-Dukes auto modelmaking board are suggesting the 79 Jeep CJ7 had brown (only brown) carpeting as standard, and that some of the photos I posted suggest it. Anyone have any idea? Any better views than what I have? If carpeted, would the rear have been covered too, including the tops of the rear wheel wells?

Yes, great stuff, I've got several seasons of Only Fools on DVD, as a longtime Britcom fan (I own about two dozen series). The chandelier is an awesome episode! Also Friday the 14th....one more favorite episode of mine is "Tea for Three." I almost choked laughing!

Well, here's a screen shot for what I found in "The Late JD Hogg" showing what I believe is a mounting plate on the transmission hump in front of the seat: Here's what I scratch-built:

No worries....knew it was a long shot. Even stuff with lots of views of the car interior like the skunk scene in Duke of Duke turned up nothing.

Anyone know of any episodes in which the CB radio is visible in Boss's car? I've only got a closeup view from "The Late J.D. Hogg" when he tore out the wires. I'd especially like distance shots (not closeups of the radio itself) showing how it would have been mounted, i.e. on the seat, in front of the seat, on the trans hump, etc.

Hey there Hobie; I did at first, but I did my research. The fangs were only on a black-interior car used in three episodes in Season 4. Can't see the front bumper for the single episode in Season 3 when he was introduced. I still had to modify the bumper anyway, to fill in the Monaco's signal lights, plus add the "tabs" that were sometimes there on either side of the license plate, and sometimes not. All episodes after the first 3 episodes in S4 were tan-interior vehicles without the fangs. Since I like the tan interior so much more (it's what I vividly remember as a child), I went with that. Here's the breakdown: –S3 E14 My Son, Bo Hogg – black interior (no clear view of front bumper) –S4 E2 Double Dukes – black interior, bumper fangs present –S4 E4 Coltrane vs. Duke – black interior, bumper fangs present –S4 E8 10 Million Dollar Sheriff Part 1 – black interior, bumper fangs present –S4 E12 Cletus Falls in Love – mixed black and tan interiors, NO bumper fangs –S4 E16 Shine On Hazzard Moon – tan interior, NO bumper fangs –S4 E24 Miss Tri-Counties – tan interior, NO bumper fangs –S4 E25 Share and Share Alike – tan interior, NO bumper fangs –S5 E12 The Treasure of Soggy Marsh – tan interior, NO bumper fangs –S6 E5 The Boar’s Nest Bears – tan interior, NO bumper fangs –S6 E14 Dead and Alive – tan interior, NO bumper fangs –S7 E11 Sittin’ Dukes -- (didn't get around to checking this one)
