So many "lonely" songs to choose from - anyone fancy a lonely theme? When this song came out in 1980, many people in the UK misheard the lyrics and thought it was about the well-known BBC news/current affairs presenter Sue Lawley! It's still what I sing along . It reminded me of the Family Guy/Sting parody. Incidentally, there's an Irish Police tribute band call 'The Gardai' (Irish for police).

When I was thinking of other movies that featured Chargers, 'Dirty Mary Crazy Larry' (1974) came to mind. The car was mainly a '69 R/T, although a '68 and a base model also appeared. I seem to remember one scene where one of the other Chargers was used as a camera car, and can be seen in a reflection on the main car. It took a while until I was happy with the coloring on this one. The car was painted 'Limelight Yellow', which is actually a fluorescent yellow-green color. I hope y'all will think it's close enough . ETA: The original video I posted is no longer available (and I can't remember exactly what was in it), so here's the trailer instead: SPOILER ALERT: Anyone who's seen the intro to 'The Fall Guy' will know how the movie ends. AutoWorld were supposed to be making a 1:18 diecast of this car, but have run into licensing issues. It may appear sometime in 2013.

Don't worry Roger, you're not going mad. I said it was a '68 because that's how it's described on IMCDb, and the only picture they have definitely shows a car with a '68 front fender and grille: However, I did a little more research and found a thread about the car on www.dodgecharger.com which has several extra pictures, including a clear view of the '69 tail lights you saw, and a few of the interior. The comments suggest that this was a "survivor" General Lee that just had some of the front end swapped with a '68 model. On a related issue, I was watching an episode of 'The Fall Guy' called 'Bite of the Wasp' earlier that included a Charger in one of the stunts. The car was all yellow, but had '69 tail lights and General Lee wheels. After the car was flipped its wheels alternated serveral times between General Lee wheels and steel wheels that had been painted silver. As another Dukes connection, this episode was the second of three to guest star Mary-Margaret Humes aka. Tinker from 'Mason Dixon's Girls'.

I had a feeling that you'd remember, CD. It was 'Cletus Falls in Love'. Sheriff Little (who's guarding the Hazzard jail) gets distracted by Daisy and Cletus (out of uniform) while Cooter pulls out the bars with his tow truck, allowing Bo and Luke to escape. Even the threat of getting shot doesn't stop them! This scene with Colonel Jackson's pie truck occurs during the getaway:

I think the episode you're remembering is 'Enos's Last Chance' from season 6 (episode 10), although Bo, Luke and Cooter dress up as decoys for Enos, not Rosco: I can't immediately remember which episode the second scene is from, but I'll keep thinking .

I think BL's right again. I've never seen the movie, which didn't help . I checked the car out on IMCDb and found it was actually a 1968 Charger, but mostly the right color and it has the right wheels. One of the commenters seems sure it was a survivor form Dukes.

I'm going to play out of turn again, sadly for another tribute. Andy Williams passed away on 25th September after a year-long battle with bladder cancer. I have to confess, I don't really know the song above, but it fitted with the previous one. Ones I know better include (which I've posted before), (I went for the video from epic Honda commercial of a couple of years ago), and probably the best known, .RIP. Howard Andrew "Andy" Williams (December 3, 1927 – September 25, 2012).

I've just posted a Dionne Warwick song in Musical Chairs and it reminded me that one of her songs was part of the "Cover to Cover" feature recently. Here are the two versions to compare and contrast: This week's song had two very different versions. I'm very familiar with the original British soul version (y'all may remember it from 'Shallow Hal'), but had never heard the countrified version from 1995:

I know I've already done a Hal David tribute, but when did you ever hear a complaint about too much Bacharach and David?

I'm breaking two rules here: one of HazzardNet's and one of my own! I'd promised myself that I would try not to create any more threads in 'Fan Art' (I figured I was being greedy), but here I go with a new one. Not only that, but the artwork isn't even related to the Dukes of Hazzard (I hope the mods will be gentle with me ). Seeing as I had updated vector art for a Dodge Charger and a '68 Mustang I couldn't resist the urge to do this project, so I'm kicking off this new thread with the two cars from possibly the greatest chase in movie history. If you haven't guessed, it's 'Bullitt'. The baddies had the black '68 Charger (I had to change the front end, rear end and side markers), while Steve McQueen chased them in a highland green Mustang. For those of you unfamiliar with the chase, you can see most of it here. I've got a few other movie cars in mind, and will add them as soon as they're done.

I'm going to agree with BL. I actually remember all three of these .

Welcome to HNet, EG. I'm glad you took the plunge and signed up. We look forward to your contributions.
