I can tell anyone interested were one of the (maybe) real General Lee's are. it's at a gas station right outside of Surgoinsville, TN. To get there you get on 25-E I believe and it's on the right if your heading North i think and on the left of course going south. It looks like it has been jumped and is faded and all but you can still tell what it is. And another thing it's rumored to be a real one nobody really knows.

I found this picture of it on Google Maps:

The gas station is the BP - Greeneville Oil & Petroleum Co Inc., 143 Hurd Road, Surgoinsville, TN. The StreetView image on Google Maps is a bit blurry, but you can see it here.

I found this article about the car being replaced on its ramps after a 76 year old lady ran into it. It says the General was purchased at an auction in 2004 after the car made a world record jump of 197 and a half feet at Dukesfest at Bristol Motor Speedway.
