The HazzardNet Garage

Which of Daisy's cars was your favorite and why?

here is a question that has been buggin me for ages the general lee is supposed to be the fasted vehicle in hazzard - right and cooter sometimes helps the dukes with stuff - right and they sometimes race away from law together - right then how come cooter's truck can keep up with the general, even if the general is hitting the redline has cooter got nitrous in his truck or something cos there is something wrong with a 2 ton work truck keeping up with a 1 ton race car uncle jesse's truck cannot always keep up with the general, but when he does it is usually bo driving the general daisy's jeep and roadrunner cannot keep up with the general so what has cooter done to his tru…

Hey y'all! I'm in my final year of school, and have big exams at the end of the year. One of the exam subjects I do is woodwork, and we're allowed to make anything we want (within reason). I started off building a wooden bike frame, but I wouldn't have had enough time to finish it. I then decided to make a wooden push go-kart. I'm nearly finished building the rolling frame, then I just have to paint it (a la General Lee of coarse!), and maybe add a foam seat. Here are some of the pictures from birth to current state. The main frame. The back and sides. I used finger joints to hold the three sides together, then screwed them into the main frame. The sides and back screwe…

(Not to be confused with my fanfic character's 1978 Firebird. LOL) As promised, a pic of MY Maverick...

This is kinda like a sister thread to 'Rosco as a Valet' in the fact it's supposed to be humorous and bring some laughs. These are road signs and parking signs that I swear, would be right at home in Hazzard! hmm... I wonder if Bo and Luke just flew by... Yup... I'm sure at least a few of these can be found in Hazzard....

Well I'm at it again! While I'm waiting for my friend with the welder to come home, my over imaginative mind went into overdrive. Firstly let me begin with this bike. I got it back in July, and used it as a parts bike. After I stripped it down to the bare frame I left it sitting in my scrap pile, which I would eventually take to the scrap yard. It was around this time that I decided to build my own bike. I needed a front steering pipe (headset) for the bike, so I cut the one out of the scrapped blue frame. I returned the bike to the scrap pile, with every intention of taking it to the scrapyard. However whilst searching the classifieds earlier for specific parts I c…

This is my 1987 Ramcharger! As close to a Charger as I can get for now! But I love this truck and I will never let it go!

RowdyGowdy's Dodge Charger was purchased in August 2007 and fully restored to a General Lee Replica by May 2008 just in time for Dukesfest in June 2008 at the Atlanta Motor Speedway!!

Hey Y'all! Okay... I need help. If there's anyone out there that is knowledgeable about vehicles, please help! Okay, I have a 1982 (I think!) Ford Bronco XLT. Right now it's in a state of slight disrepair. Basically where should I start? Last time I looked (last summer ) it did start, but I'm not sure. Its just an old farm truck, so the battery gets removed and it gets parked behind the barn for the winter. But anyways, it "clunks" when you drive it (it is a manual transmission, four wheel drive) And the liner on the ceiling is falling down. I am working on gluing it back up, or something. (I don't know how to work on cars... most I've done is add some gas/oil and pump …

Hey y'all as some of you may know i built a General Lee bike over the summer. Now Ive come up with the crazy idea to build and mount a push bar onto the front of the bike!! And I'm going over to New York next week so ill pick up some bike accessories while I'm there

After building, modifying and generally working on bikes for the past few years I've decided to step things up a notch, and have a go at designing,fabricating and building my own custom bike frame. I went through about a dozen designs, before finally settling on this one. This is a cross between an American beach cruiser, and a chopper motorcycle. I've decided to use only materials I have in my garage for this build. Luckily I have some round steel tubing, which is ideal for the frame. I'm going to incorporate the rear fender into the frame, so will probably use sheet metal for the rear fender. The rear dropouts, where the back wheel goes, is going to be the front forks…

This is my CJ-7 I just Picked up. It is a solid base and will become my "Dixie" CJ-7 Has anyone else done this? I found the Golden Eagle decal but I am wondering if anyone knows where I can get the DIXIE decal with the daisies or am I going to have to have it custom made. I have spent a couple hours searching the internet with no luck. Anyone?

1976 Pontiac LeMans Not a General, I know, but still fun to drive http://www.facebook.com/album.php?id=507160177&aid=121440

I have searched here I have spent a ton of time on the internet searching I need a good picture of the Dixie Decal on the side of Daisy's Jeep. I can't find a good screen capture or picture of it. I know it is a golden Eagle edition and I know where to get that decal but I need a good Picture so I can have a local company recreate me a vinyl graphic. If anyone has a picture of it please email it to vstar650vt@yahoo.com Thanks a Bunch! Mike

Hi y'all!! My brother recently got a new bike, and he gave me the old one to use for parts. Well when I say he gave me it, it was more like," I'm giving you this bike, but you have to go and get it". I should explain at this point that he left it at our grandparents house three years ago, and never got round to collecting it. It sat neglected and forgotten, slowly being swallowed by the ivy in their back yard. Anyway I went round to their house today, and after taking off the seized front brake and pumping up the tires managed to cycle it part of the way home, at which point the rear gears locked up which caused the bike to skid. I tried using brute force to unlock the …

Hey y'all I've decided to strip down and rebuild my daily rider to it's former glory. I got it in 2007 for my birthday, and it's the last bike that my parents bought me. However despite it being the youngest bike I have, it's in the worst condition by far. It barely ran (only in the gear ratio 1-5), the front wheel was buckled from a collision with a car last year,the gears were gone, the back brake jammed whenever I used it, someone stole the badge from the front if the bike, the front brake barely worked and the rubber on the brake was torn off in the car collision and I never got round to fixing it, the rear tire was ready to burst (it had a duct tape patch holding i…

Hello, I'm beginning work on the interior of my General. I know that saddle-tan is pretty common w/ a lot of the Generals. Have you guys ever used the VHT Vinyl spray before? If so, have you used the saddle-tan or Buckskin tan colors for anything in the interior? Here is the link: http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1∂=VHT%2DSP944&N=700+301990+115&autoview=sku Thanks for any help! Aaron

As I mentioned in my introduction post, I have a '68 Charger 'General Lee' and I thought I should share a pic or two. This photo shows the car when I first imported it to the UK. It was just a rolling shell, already painted in Hemi Orange with a 440 and a mismatched set of Vectors, and not much else! This is the Georgia-era inspired nudge bar I designed and made. It's not accurate to the show, but it fits the car really well and gets a lot of interest. This one shows me and my good friend Nick applying the flag decal. He's from Tennessee working in the UK, and we became good friends when he found out I was a Duke fan and General owner. He said he didn't think he'd trave…

Hey y'all It was suggested to me back in November that I call my white ladies racer Dixie. Somehow Dixie just didn't seem right for that bike. I recently got back into recumbent bikes. They're bikes that you sit back on and the pedals are infront of the handlebars. Unfortunately they are really expensive so I decided to build one myself. Here's a picture of what I'm basing mine on I started searching,an found someone selling three kids bikes for €20 total! The one on the left is going to supply the handlebars,pedals,front forks,chain and wheel. The middle one is going to be the main bike that I sit on. The one on the right is going to donate it's axles to help hold …

Hey y'all I've had this idea for a while, but it seemed that whenever I'd try to do it I always faced some obstical that forced me to stop. Now however I'm trying it. I've always been fascinated with motorbikes,mainly Harleys. Around Christmas of last year I began toying with the idea of fitting a gas engine from a lawnmower,chainsaw or weed wacker. Last weekend I put that idea to paper, and within three hours of deciding on this project bought a bike. The badge says it was made in west Germany, so it's atleast 25 years old. And because it's German it's built like a tank. Unfortunately I found this out the hard way after I had broken seven drill bits trying to drill hole…

Here are some pics of it: There some of them and you can find more on my flickr account but you'll have to PM me to get it! Thanks Hope y'all enjoy now!

Here's mine. I still need to add the stripes. Before: http://homepage.mac.com/unix_geek/main/PhotoAlbum9.html After: http://homepage.mac.com/unix_geek/main/PhotoAlbum11.html

Does anyone know what color yellow Daisy's 1971(Satellite) and 1974 Roadrunner were painted?

I missed this story at the end of last year, but luckily it was mentioned on the new series of 'The Grand Tour'. Here's a '68 Dodge Charger fitted with the 426 Hemi Hellephant crate motor similar to the one found in the Hellcat. As well as the 1,000-hp engine, there's a six-speed manual transmission, six-piston Brembo brakes and Hellcat wheels measuring 20 inches in front and 21 inches in back. More info here. There are several videos about the car, including this one:

I was wondering if anyone could give me a quick general guide on how to install a melody air horn i know it needs to be away from the engine itself and away from the radiator i am planning on installing it behind my bumper onto the inside of the front right wing - does that sound about right? any help will be greatly appreciated
