My Version of the Ghost of the General Lee
Skipper Duke reacted to sb61fury for a topic
Bo and Luke were getting in the General Lee and then heading down the road to take it for a test drive. they were working on the engine and putting in a new cam . Jenyfer was pulling up in Christine when she seen Bo and Luke take off .. Daisy was hanging out laundry and Jen went over to help her by taking the dry laundry down and went inside to fold and put it away. Jenyfer and Daisy had to be at work at the Boars Nest later that day . Jenyfer and Daisy got ready for work and headed to the Boars nest for a days work. It was not busy so Jenyfer started to take items off the shelves and cleaned the shelves and placed them back on the shelves. She also moved the tables and swepted the dirt from under the tables and mopped also , After the cleaning was done Boss Hogg came in to see how business was . Jen told him it was not that busy but she did some cleaning to keep herself busy . Daisy cleaned the kitchen and the dirty dishes in the sink and put then away Jen seen some people come in and took their order . Then Roscoe came in She said Roscoe you look like you lost your friend whats wrong. Roscoe told her that Bo and Luke went in the pond with the General Lee and they did not come up . She had a blank look on her face . Uncle Jesse was there also so was Cooter. Boss Hogg said Bo and Luke stole his Jeferson Davis Watch. Jen turned around and glared at him and said You know that is not true and he said is was . I do not under stand you Boss you and Roscoe are always trying to frame Bo and Luke for a crime they never committed , I will say this the next person who runs against dimwit of a sheriff you have I will vote for the other runner and I hope he wins and maybe there would be honest lawmen here . Jenyfer simmer down I know you are upset Uncle Jesse said. After their shift was done Jenyfer and Daisy went back to the Duke farm. Uncle Jesse was having a wake for Bo and Luke . She seen Uncle Jesse look out the window as if he had seen some thing . He asked her to finish with the lemon ade and serving the guests. She said she would . She ran out but she made some more . Then she heard Daisy scream and ran out side to see what the scream was all about then she seen Bo and Luke . Bo told her the General was stolen and they must of jumped the general and he landed in the water. Bo and Luke hid on the side of Cooters tow truck while he took off in to town. Jenyfer followed behind in Christine . Cooter had the General Lee in his garage and he said by Boss and Rosco thinking y'all are dead by showing up alive it would scare them straight. Jenyfer started thinking . Bo asked what are you thinking about darlin? She said remember the movie you and I were watching the other night the George Romero Movie that was released back in 1968 . Cooter said you must be talking about Night of the Living Dead. She said how about if I made you up like zombies both of you go in to Boss Hogg and Roscos office like that and I will bet that would scare these 21 point -

Favorite filming locations... Hazzard County #1 GA or Hazzard County #2 CA? I love both. But Hazzard County #1 GA is the best one.1 point -

There's still no sign of Dukes seasons 4-7 appearing on Forces TV in the UK, but I did hear another familiar intro on a trailer earlier this evening. Starting with a double bill this Saturday at 6pm, Forces TV are showing CHiPs from the beginning. For the younger members here, Jon and Ponch were riding their CHP Kawasakis two years before Bo and Luke slid through the welded doors of the General Lee. The show ran for six full seasons and notched up nearly as many episodes as Dukes.1 point

Valencia Oaks Movie Ranch
Skipper Duke reacted to CDoherty95 for a topic
Great work Hoss! The ranches are generally harder to work on, but I'm quite good at geography so I probably find it a little easier than other people. I went into the housing development next to the ranch on google street view earlier, hoping to find a break in the houses that would allow me to see the ranch from a different angle. It didn't work, but I did find something a little more significant. As most of y'all know the ranch was sold to a property developer a few years ago, with the hopes of building a large upscale housing development. Well the ranch is for sale again. I spent hours trying to find any information I could on the ranch, like who was selling it and how much were they hoping to get for it etc. Luckily google updated their Valencia street view, and I found this sign outside the ranch. I googled the name, and it turns out she's selling a 20 acre section of the ranch for $150,000. The section is just north of Tom Sarmeto's garage area. Hopefully if my singing career works out I can buy the ranch and bring it back to it's Dukes glory days!! Haha1 point -

Here's a couple of shots of the Duke Farm post Dukes. I'd just like to thank BrianColtrane for providing me with the screencaps This first shot is of the Duke Barn. It was taken from the corner of the farmhouse As you can see the doors are shut (as far as I know this only happened once during the series,in the episode Limo 1),and the hay bales present in every episode are gone,as is the white fence that separated the hay bales from the farmyard. This is purely speculation,but I believe the fence and hay bales are missing because the bad guys truck needed to circle the whole house. This next shot might bring a tear to your eye (it did to mine anyway). Imagine what poor Jesse would say if he found out his house was set on fire by Universal Studios!! Here's a shot taken moments previously,which shows the farmhouse wearing a light yellow coat of paint Any eagle eyed fans will notice that the wall seen just inside the door during Dukes is gone,and we can see right through to the other side of the house. This shot leads me to believe that the farmhouse was also used for some interior shots during Dukes You've just got to imagine that the big empty space infront of Hasslehoff was once two bedrooms,and at the left side of this shot was where the closet where Boss hid in during "Ding Dong The Boss is Dead"1 point -

This is a behind the scenes photo of the 2 car jump in the Hazzardgate Tape. This was taken to the left of the impound yard,infront of the Capitol City Junkyard. Being early on in season 5,the ranch was still being developed,and as you can see from the aerial photo from 1980 it was a barren lot. Here's a shot of Ted Barbara jumping the roadrunner in "The New Dukes". Apparently the run up was very short and he needed nitrous oxide. Ted would have used the area in the first picture as his run up. These are all photos that I've found on the web. If someone could post or email me a few screencaps of the Impound Yard and Duke Farm it would be much appreciated. My email address is conalldoherty06@gmail.com Finally I'd like to thank Hoss for providing me with an edited version of the labelled map. Hopefully this new map will be clearer and easier to understand1 point -

In this next post I'm going to concentrate on the Hazzard County Impoud Yard/Tom Sarmento's shop. It's labeled as "2" on the map. This first picture is a behind the scenes picture,taken at the gate of the lot. Although the barn isn't included in this shot you can see the shadow of it in the right corner. This next shot is taken from the newspaper article about the 1991 deal. I'm sorry for the poor quality,but it's the best version I could find. This next picture is one I found on CGLFC. It was posted by a member who goes by the name of Corndog. Perhaps he is on HNet as well? The Lee on the right is the "Soundstage Lee" and the Lee on the left is the "Billboard Lee". This is one of the last photos of the ranch that I could find before it fell into disrepair. This picture is one I found on the Smith Brothers Restoration site. On the left is the late Rich Sephton, and on the right is Tom Sarmento. Behind the hill in the background is the I-5 and to the right is where the Duke Farm (1) once stood.1 point
