  1. I did see your message last night, but it was nearly 3am here, and don't usually reply at that time of night.

    I can take the badges off the patrol cars easily enough. What is it you need?. Is it just a side view, or all views?. Do you want it plain white?. What do you have planned?.

    I assume that you have downloaded the race car decals, so I'll delete them later today - I can reload them in the future if needed.

  2. I know my comment was facetious, but the underlying point is valid. It's not just about spelling; US English and British English also use different words and idioms. While (and I was going to start the sentence with "Whilst", but apparently that's British English) I would be happy to proofread British English, I'm not sure that I'm the right person to proofread US English. Regardless, my offer still stands.
  3. *Did you do well in school? *feedback *proofreader *run-on I fit most of the criteria if you don't get any better offers. Just remember, I speak proper English, not that colonial variation you speak in your parts .
  4. Hi Jerry, glad to have you along.
  5. It is very obvious. I've had this screengrab lying around for a while.
  6. I spotted a couple of errors in 'Farewell, Hazzard' the other day. The first is when Bo goes to check out the field where they saw the helicopter. As he arrives the General is missing its license plate, yet moments later it's back (see inset) even though Bo just walked around the front of the car: Later on the helicopter tries to run them off the road again. The fake helicopter skids in the studio shots have larger black areas on them. Also, that's definitely not Bo driving in the first picture.
  7. I can't stay away from the '80s for long : The song was written by Tim Rice and ABBA members Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus. It's also great for a .
  8. I'm working on the race cars from the 2005 movie at the moment. Every time I think I'm nearly there I find another car or another logo to add. I send something by the end of tomorrow.

    One Word Song Titles

    Would you believe that I have five different versions of that song, but not the one you chose!. I'll add a bit more spice to the pot : Vindaloo - Fat Les A great sing-a-long track (although you probably have to be a supporter of the England soccer team ). The song was written by Blur's bassist Alex James and comedian Keith Allen for the 1998 FIFA World Cup. The video, which is a great parody of (it was even filmed on the same street), includes British comedians Paul Kaye, Rowland Rivron and Little Britain's Matt Lucas and David Walliams as well as artist Damian Hirst and Tenpole Tudor vocalist Edward Tudor-Pole.
  10. "Horse" songs is it?. How about this one from Dublin band The Thrills?:
  11. Not much - just having a pizza ATM. I'm also helping a friend transfer his website to a new host and I'm finding it really frustrating :(. Luckily there's some good TV on Friday nights for the next few weeks, so I'm sorted for a couple of hours :). What's happening over in the US of A?.

  12. Welcome to HNet. CDoherty and myself are close neighbors (or as we say, neighbours) of yours over in Ireland.
  13. Hi there. Sorry, last night I wasn't really awake when you sent your first message (just happened to catch it as I shut the computer down), and I didn't see the second until this morning. Glad to hear your still up and running - did you you fix something, or do you have your fingers crossed? :). I'd be up for a chat one night, but not as late as your offer last night.

  14. Welcome to HazzardNet :).

  15. Feels like I've done loads, but none of it's quite ready. I'll PM you something in the next few days.

  16. There's still a few "Crazy" songs out there, like this one: They don't write 'em like that anymore .

    Commercials

    I laughed when I saw the disclaimer "Professional driver on a closed course. Do not attempt." appear at the bottom of the screen. Then it made me sad that it was necessary.
  18. I've posted a picture in the thread you started earlier.

  19. Just to clear up what we've been discussing privately, and add a few more details, here's a summary: The episode is 'Close Call for Daisy' in season 6 and the other notebook belonged to "Nervous" Norman Willis. The Reverend is called "Reverend" at least twice in dialog, but not given a name. The credits just say "the PASTOR". The name J.P. Frawley comes from the sign outside the church: This screengrab actually comes from a few episodes earlier, but can be seen at the end of the scene where the notebooks get swapped. The Reverend/Pastor was played by Joe Mays who sadly passed away just 10 years later at the age of 45.
  20. The top ten line up is: 1 AJ Allmendinger 2 Kevin Harvick 3 Joey Logano 4 Denny Hamlin 5 Mark Martin 6 Martin Truex Jr. 7 Dale Earnhardt Jr. 8 Clint Bowyer 9 Kasey Kahne 10 Sam Hornish Jr. Jimmie Johnson is 15th, Jeff Gordon is 20th, Tony Stewart is 23rd and David Ragan is 27th - I hope that covers most of this thread's regular poster's favorites .
  21. You beat me to it - I was just about to send you a link to that. In the dialog he's just called "Reverend" and in the credits he's called "the Pastor", but the sign you found in Fan Art does appear behind Nervous Norman's car.

    The Reverend has dark hair over his ears, but is bald on top and has a 'Magnum' style mustache. I thought he was in his early 40s, but the guy who played him (Joe Mays) was only about 35 at the time (according to IMDb). I can PM you a picture if you need it.

  22. Season 5 starts with a dearth of patrol cars. Aside from the odd appearance of Sheriff Little, most of the bad guys in the Coy and Vance episodes get taken away by Hazzard's own police at the end of an episode. For that reason I've included the following two pictures. The sharp-eyed amongst you will notice that these are not strictly cars (the lack of enough wheels was what gave it away to me!). This motorcycle is seen briefly in 'The New Dukes' as it escorts the armored car which gets attacked by the Mean Green Machine. It seems to have a plain white gas tank, and the rider's badges are never seen clear enough to read. After some Googling I think it's a 1978 Kawasaki KZ 1000 Police, but I really don't know much about bikes, so stand to be corrected. Two more bikes here, this time from 'Coy vs. Vance'. They look very similar to the one above, although the windshields are different, the orange lights are different sizes and the one above doesn't have mirrors. This time some badges are visible. The 6-pointed star on the gas tank (see inset) is similar to the Hazzard badges and says "COUNTY" across the top, although I can't make out the lower text. By contrast, the uniform badges definitely say "CITY POLICE" (see other inset). For some unknown reason the typeface used for the word "POLICE" on the windshields is different on each bike. Now back to 4-wheeled vehicles, and back to an episode that ends with the bad guy getting taken away by non-Hazzard police. On this occasion it's Joel in 'Welcome Back, Bo 'n' Luke'. The State Police car has the same badge as the one that appeared in 'Baa, Baa White Sheep' (second picture), although that was a black and white 1977/78 Monaco and this is a blue and white 1975/76 Fury with spotlights on the A-pillars. This one also has an all red lightbar instead of the more usual blue and red combination. This green and white 1975/76 Fury shows up in 'Big Brothers, Duke'. The 7-pointed badge on the door says it belongs to Capitol City Police, but it looks to me like one of Sheriff Little's cars with the 'fangs' removed.
  23. Yeah, you're right. The traveling dentist in 'Gold Fever' was Homer Willis, D.D.S. (Office Hours 9 - 6) - I had a screengrab of the RV with the details on the side :).

  24. Happy Birthday :).

  25. I agree with BL - CJ Holmes presented "Dixie" to Daisy at the end of the episode (although it mysteriously appeared two episodes earlier in 'Arrest Jesse Duke').
